Looking into the world on a cold but dry November sunday.



Sunny ride part 2.



Last part of the trip. I'm riding home.
Delightful 100km of pure enjoyment.

Yesterday it was raining all the time, but I went out for a ride with the Bullet, couldn't stand the thought not to ride. But today it was fine. No rain, not warm, but I liked it.

Let's see your CB1100 out on the road!

Saturday Beach Day.

40 miles. Bike needs to go in for service Tuesday - idling at 2200 and needs new tires. Might screw up my goal of averaging a ride every other day, but we will see.

Ugh, ... is that the snow fence already? (or some sort of Covid fence?)

Au₂O₃ - I'm not sure if that's a snow fence or a sand fence (due to the unusually high winds here lately). On the other hand......

Don't know if it's terrible timing or perfect timing, but had to get my CB1100 into the shop today. Weather looks kinda crummy today and tomorrow -- If I get it back tomorrow evening, then timing will be perfect. If they need to keep it over the weekend, then timing will be terrible.

I guess there was no knee-draggin' turns this morning?

RE: Let's see your CB1100 out on the road!

A nice cool but bright day to take a lunchtime spin. I’m Parked up besides this “folly”, built just outside the old Castletown Estate in Ireland. It was built at a cost of £400 to provide employment for the poor of Celbridge, Co Kildare when the famine of 1740–41 was at its worst in Ireland.

It is out of the way on a quiet country road with little passing traffic, not many people know it exists. It got saved with a large donation to a restoration society by an American donor Rose Saul Zalles back in the 60’s.

Long ago in its past a Lady Louisa lived there, a great-granddaughter of King Charles II of England. His nemesis was Oliver Cromwell who defeated him at the Battle of Worcester in 1651 leading to the period where England became a Republic (of sorts).

It is great the little stories that an outing on motorbikes can bring. I inadvertently passed this folly on my bike one day when out bimbling, taking random roads and seeing where the bike took me. I had to look it up when I got home so another education for me and an interesting back story.
