Let's see your CB1100 out on the road!

[the Ferret]

225 mile ride, last Saturday, with a college buddy that I taught to ride way back when! Out east of Houston in a small town named Fayetteville.

2006 Buell Lightening

A few Harleys showed up while we were in eating lunch.

A little experiment with the camera filter tools...

Nice!

Great filter!

At the Hansen Dam All British Ride last Sunday. Only one CB1100 Spotted and a few fine japanese rides... Rode with a group of nortons up Tujunga Canyon and the photos I took here are from when we got back from the ride. Didn't really have time to take a bunch of photos, too much to take in....

From today's ride

Now there's a flood out in California and up north it's freezing cold
And this living on the road is getting pretty old
So I guess I'll call up my big mama, tell her I'll be rolling in
But you know, deep down, I'm kind of tempted to go and see my Bessie again

Up on Cripple Creek she sends me
If I spring a leak she mends me
I don't have to speak, she defends me
A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one

Who Remembers "The Band" ?

I remember the Band. Nice quote.

Good pictures too.

I remember the band, but I can't recall its name.
Great pics and great bikes, lola

I like that one! Local British dealer had a really sweet street tracker in their showroom, a few years back, that was hard to ignore. (Until you looked at the price!)

Yes - I remember them. We even named our travel trailer after one of their songs (a favourite) "Ophelia" where have you gone.

There was a professional photographer on the side of the road along the Angeles Crest Highway who captured a few shots of me and my wife as we rode past. He goes by the name Victory Jon and sells his photos through his website http://www.highwayphotos.net. After the ride, I found his website and searched through all the photos until I found ours. After exchanging a couple emails with Jon, I decided to buy them! I have plenty of photos of my bikes at a stand still but only a few in motion and, until now, none of the CB in motion. Jon did a panoramic shot putting the three photos together which turned out great. Not sure how it will show up here but I'll try posting it. I plan on getting it printed and framed.
