Mark, may I use this photo and info on www.facebook.com/NorthAmTriumphs and
in The Vintage Triumph Magazine?

I will be covering the Kastner Cup 2020 (spectators or no spectators,
pending government mandates as their date is May 26th) and this would be a
cool introduction/bookend photo with valued info. Photo credit would go to
you, of course.
