Cabin Trip - Guth_imp - 07-07-2013

We have a cabin up near Mt. Hood here in Oregon that is about 45 miles from our house. I'm usually driving the truck hauling this, that or the other when we head out there. This weekend my family headed out early, so I opted for the CB1100 instead. Weather was perfect with temps in the low 70's and plenty of sunshine. I'd normally opt for nothing but rural roads almost all the way out, but this time around I split my route about half and half between rural roads and state highway. The ride out to the cabin was perfect and it was a great weekend. Went fly fishing with my son for the first time ever this morning after getting him a rod & reel for his birthday earlier this year. (I just took up the sport last year.) The wife, son and dogs headed back home in the automobile while I enjoyed another ride on the CB, this time fighting a strong headwind most of the way back. At least the breeze felt good. Once again, the bike returned 53 mpg, same as the last time I checked my mileage with mostly highway riding. Not bad at all. This bike feels so smooth going down the road. It's a great commuter bike around town, but it sure is nice getting it out on the open road. Smile

Here's a pic of a couple of "classics":
