Triumph Bonneville Beginnings
 How The Archetypal Triumph Got Its NameThe most celebrated British motorcycle in history bears the name of a 159 square-mile expanse of salt near Wendover, Utah, because of a bunch of Texans who figured they could build the fastest motorcycle on earth. Only in America. Where else are you going to find an airline pilot and engineer with an affliction for building things that go fast on the ground (J.H. "Stormy" Mangham), a genuinely legendary turner of Triumph twins (Jack Wilson) and a 27-year-old flat-tracker with the brass and the skills to take a crack at 200 mph (Johnny Allen)? Everything and everyone came together in Pete Dalio's Fort Worth, Texas, Triumph shop in 1954.
