Bad Weather Forces Postponement Of Bonneville
Cycle News Staff | September 10, 2014
Jason DiSalvo and Triumph’s attempt to break the motorcycle land speed record will have to wait as inclement weather at the Bonneville Salt Flats has forced the postponement of the Mike Cook’s Bonneville Shootout to October 5-10.
“This is part of the challenge of land speed competition,” said Matt Sheahan, Chief Operating Officer for Triumph Motorcycles America. “Everything needs to align, especially the weather. In this case, we were not so fortunate, but Triumph hopes that the weather breaks long enough and affords us the opportunity to return to Bonneville at the beginning of October.”
