Ross Noble to mark Triumph milestone with UK tour

Comedian Ross Noble is to help Triumph celebrate the production of its 500,000th bike by travelling the UK on it.

The funnyman will cover England, Wales and Scotland in seven days on a Speed Triple beginning next week.

Called the Sit Down Tour, Noble will keep fans updated with his progress via his Twitter account.

The bike will be auctioned off at the end of the journey, with all proceeds going to charity.

Guy Masters, general manager of Triumph UK, said that reaching the landmark is something everyone at the company is proud of and that it needs to be celebrated in the appropriate way.

"We wanted to do something that gave our customers a chance to get involved. We were delighted when Ross agreed to help us mark the milestone with his Sit Down Tour, which will involve dealers, riders and fans across the UK," he stated.

Noble told Time Out magazine that he owns no less than nine motorbikes.
