Bartlett Lake ride, again!
#1

Had coffee and muffin at The Grotto with a hoard of other riders. One fellow(regular) on a very nice new VFR1200. Afterwards I headed up to Bartlett to see if the wild flowers were in bloom. Meh. Better than last year for sure, but not too exciting. Here is the bike at my usual parking spot.
From here you can the lake is still a wee bit low....

Nice one Rboe. That's a very view over the lake. The bike looks good too.

Dang! I forgot to add that I saw a CB1100 heading north on Cave Creek Road as I headed home. First time I've seen one on the road in the wild while on my bike!

Nice pics. Quite the contrast to what I have been seeing out the window...

Looks like it was a great day to ride up to Bartlett. Nice pics!

I'm still waiting to see my first CB11 in the wild. I rode up to Prescott today and saw plenty of UJMs (Z-1, XS11 and a couple of CB750s), but no CB11s.

I meant to say it was a very lovely view over the lake, but the word just disappeared somewhere.

They're rare in the wild these CB1100s. Unless you know someone with one, the only place to find one is on this forum.

The desert is so beautiful there. The contrast of blue water and arid landscape is striking. Nice!
