Enzo, Portsmouth is about 100 miles from my house. We ride down there 2 to 3 times a year for one of those steaks. We call them Ribber runs! Lol

" bout time for a Ribber Run isn't it? Lol

It helps that its a 100 curvy miles that runs through much of Shawnee State Forest in s/e Ohio.

Its been nice weather on the east coast so far this fall, great that you could make the most of it.
Also good to see you touring on your CB1100, I just tend to do shorter 90 minute rides on smaller/tighter back roads in my area.....but nice to know I could do more...

The CB would not be my first choice for a dedicated touring bike, but it does a yeomans job. Plenty of power, good ergos, mediocre seat, and it could really be more 1100 sized vs 750 sized for a little more room if it were being used for touring only.

Ferret...that looked like a great trip. Thanks for sharing! What kind of windscreen is that? How do you like it? And is it easy to install... and then to remove?

Thanks. The shield is a National Cycle Street Shield EX. It is easy to mount and dismount and leaves little behind when you want to ride with the bike naked which I prefer. It provides great coverage from bicep to bicep and waist to mouth for me at 5'7". There is some buffeting and wind noise, but nothing I couldn't live with considering the protection for fall and winter.

Welcome back Bronx boy. Have sure enjoyed your reports. When do you head back over? BTW my wife and I toured the Catskills on our way home from New England one year. Beautiful country to ride in. As a matter of fact I was surprised how beautiful New York ( the state not the city) was.
