What did you do on or to your CB 1100 today
       


Spent the (sweltering) weekend in Somerset. Rode out from London.

My first longer ride, on a bike that isn't a 125. 120 miles each way of A roads, B roads, and single track lanes.

A baptism of fire for sure - ups and downs. I love this bike though.

Wow! Beautiful!
You know what? I actually would like a pickle.

That's funny because part of my route was through Chertsey, which is where that scene was filmed.

I didn't have safety goggles on though..

I took the CB1100 EX to DGR in Dublin Ireland earlier in the month. Weather was pretty poor and we had a very low attendence compared to previous years. My EX got covered in road crud, still havn't found time to clean the old girl up!

According to relatives, T.E. Lawrence is in the family tree on my mother's side.

It doesn't matter what I ride, how far or how fast, only that I ride .... every day

Biker I believe Lawrence loved riding his Brough Superior. Must run in the family.

There's a difference in riding a naked bike and riding a bike naked.
Won't make that mistake again. 
2013 Honda CB1100 Standard. Gone, but not forgotten.

Good on you for still riding, Tev! Thinking back, I can't remember having bad weather here for the DGR. I am very thankful that they moved it from September to May. A little warm to wear tweed when it's still in the 90s around here.
And, you remind me that I need to get off my duff and edit my DGR videos. I have expressed my interest to get involved with the L.A. ride crew for next year. Sounds like fun!
