Let's see your CB1100 out on the road!

Actually I was thinking more Tom Petty with the line "Into the Great Wide Open".
That does look cool. I have a similar picture somewhere of sky and clouds reflecting off of my Triumph's black tank.

Bummer that the temperatures just started coming down as you were leaving. That was the hottest September spell we've had in quite a while.
Safe travels home! That Flyaway bus can come in very handy.

Flying Aer Lingus by any chance? The last time I did, on the way to Birmingham for a trade show, I was delayed in Dublin. The gate agents were gauging the length of the delay by how many pints of Guinness I would be able to consume before the next flight boarded.

Well its a good strategy to down Guinness in Ireland I was with Aer Lingus, direct to Dublin. Unfortunately I was delayed at LAX, there was no Guinness and a glass of wine $16, I wasn't prepared to pay that much! That was nothing compared to Aer Lingus taking three and a half hours to get my bags off the plane in Dublin though. COVID has a lot to answer for (or the way it was handled at least).

Perhaps the baggage handlers in Dublin were the same guys who suggested I consume great amounts of Guinness, after having some themselves?

Delayed at LAX? My heavens, I've never heard of that!

I had this song in my mind when I rode that long country road. It was the reason for the pic's title. Whenever I ride along such a road it feels like into the great wide open to me.
