RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

Just looked it up, we average 176 days of sunshine a year here in Cinti ...that means 189 days without Sad

I only ride an average of 305 days a year lol. I'm at 290 as of today

My internet search says average is 205 sunny days for the States, Portland is at 145. Sunny days must mean "kind of sunny". But Oregon's saving grace is that I think we have the most beautiful summers, at least of anyplace Ive lived. From mid June to end of Sept (the best month in my view), we have 75-85 degree days, not too much humidity, very few rain days, and glorious mc riding.

Since our classes where I teach don't start till late September, I always have post Labor Day to explore for 2 weeks with little traffic on the already forlorn hiways of eastern OR. But there's always something...it's also primet time for forest fire spoke to deal with.

RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

I thought this would be an easy one. I live in the country there are red houses and red barns everywhere, problem is non are close enough to the road to get a good pic. Thought I'd find a firebush close to the road, and I did, but they are past their prime in mid-November and not the firey red I was looking for. So rode past a Firehouse hoping a Fire truck would be out. Nope, but their garage door was the right color

and to make it a 2-fer....my favorite tool for maintaining my CB is my digital tire gauge which also happens to have a color matching face

Nice job, guys! Yeah, I thought it would be easy too… I know there are some brick walls and a large fire station near me. But not enough red!

My museum is red outside, but I’m not going till the end of the month, and I won’t be able to ride that day.

Same here, but it was fun all the same "lookin' for red in all the wrong places".
