Used to live in Ft Pierce with my parents, toured there by motorcycle with my wife many times, and then went back and bowhunted there for years and killed a slew of hogs with my wife and son.

I miss Florida sometimes.

Palm trees in every pic if you look hard enough. Most orange groves are on long straight roads. I prefer the strawberry grove roads with some nice twisties. The only thing I miss are the mountain roads in N. Ga.

It was 59 degrees at 11 am. I layered up with several long sleeve shirts stacked under a windbreaker, and 2 pairs of socks. I rode until my arthritic left hand was cold and hurting. Found some more new stuff. Great day.

Looks great! I enjoy seeing the CB1100 in other areas of the country / world. Been a long time since I was in Florida...a short trip for an interview about 20 years ago, and then 1982 for a week.

The sunshine state has some unique attributes, but the severe humidity makes riding not so much fun. Southern Ontario gets a lot of that same humidity in summer.

I was born/raised in Hillsbilly County, and the heat and humidity can be hard to deal with for sure. I have been in the home building business working outside my entire career. In the summer I am on the bike at dawn and ride to 11 or so. No worries.
