About the Georgia Triumph Association (GTA)
We are Georgia's only all-Triumph car club, and one of the
largest Triumph clubs in the Southeast. Our current membership
roster includes over 150 members. We are also a chapter of the
Vintage Triumph Register and the 6-Pack.
Over the years, we have enjoyed many wonderful activities, from
scenic touring in the North Georgia Mountains, to the rich displays
of British Car Days on the lawn of Chateau Élan and now
Berry College, to the intimate gatherings at the GTA holiday
parties. Even when inclement weather threatens, there are always
the die-hard enthusiasts who never failed to show up with their
Triumphs – ready for anything.
We make every effort to ensure that the GTA hosts at least one
driving event each month. We also collaborate with other area clubs
to mix and mingle to provide a well-rounded experience for our
members. The result is a calendar of events that leaves few
weekends with nowhere to go. Some of us put thousands of miles on
our Triumphs throughout the season, which are what our cars are
made to do, drive!
One of the high points in our driving season is the GTA Polar Bear
Run. Our first winter tour took place on the last Saturday of 2000
in freezing temperatures. We invited all of the other import clubs
in the area and had 27 cars show up to drive. Since then, we have
hosted Polar Bear groups of over 100 cars every year. Watch the
calendar for the date of this year's winter tour.
Touring is not the only thing we do. The GTA also hosts some
informative technical sessions and social activities. In 2005 &
2007, we co-hosted the Southeast regional meet at Jekyll Island
with our Southeastern sister clubs. This event was spectacular and
proved that all the clubs in the Southeast can come together and
sponsor a show together and make it one to remember.
So if you own a Triumph in the state of Georgia , and you're
not a member of the GTA, please consider joining our group. If you
are a member of the GTA, and we haven't seen you in a while,
please come out and join us, or offer us suggestions for an event
that you'd like to attend.
If you own another small-caliber sports car of interest, and are
in striking distance of the Atlanta area, keep an eye on our
calendar of events, and come join us on one of our many road trips
throughout the year. I promise that you'll have a great time.
