I like the sunset shot.

It was a bit hot today, so I saved my ride for the evening. I wanted to get photos by the ocean where Mrs. Gone and I like to walk when we're by the beach. As I found out, however, there are few places where you can park and get a good photo of your bike with the ocean in the background.

The photo with all of the boats in the background is Newport Beach Harbor, looking at Balboa Island. I particularly like this spot, because before everything was developed into beach-front houses with luxury yachts, plastic surgery offices (I'm taking this photo from the parking lot of one) and other frippery, Buster Keaton used this exact location for filming most scenes that involved a car or motorcycle running into water, or boating scenes. It's a great place to walk around.

My favorite view of the beach in Orange County is visible for a glimpse along Pacific Coast Highway before it heads into Laguna. It's one of our favorite beach walks. Unfortunately, there is no place to safely stop and take a photo of a bike with this view, so my sunset GoPro snapshot will have to do.

So sad Gone. :-/

+1 for me. Great image from a moving GoPro.

Rhode Island State Pier #5, with the beautiful Narragansett towers & town beach in the background (Atlantic Ocean).

Nice!

Three of us forum members spent the night in Narrangansett and rode by the beach about 2 months ago. Beautiful area.

I wish I’d known! I work in town and commute there on my CB as often as possible.

We ate dinner at George's, stayed at the Anchor Motel, then the next morning rode along North 1 thru a really cool medieval looking archway along the beach and ate breakfast at Java Madness before heading to Pennsylvania.

Wow, that looks cool! It would be worth the ride just to go under that weirdo building!

Going to spend a few days at Mom's to take care of some things around the house for her. Headed out after work tonight, and she said to eat dinner before I show up, so thinking of a beachside diner I like. If I can slide down there before sunset, I might be able to get some good shots.

Interesting Ferret.

By chance, I wonder if a railroad used to travel under it once upon a time?

Beautiful 12milesout. It is really nice to see all these places with water. We got some rain in this part of Arizona yesterday, but it dries up fast.

It’s all that remains of a massive casino from a bygone era. Narragansett used to be similar to Newport; a summer haven for wealthy New Yorkers. I guess in some ways it still is. There is an old train station a few blocks away, but AFAIK, there were never tracks under the Towers.

My ancient phone wasn’t up to the task of capturing the sunset in Carlsbad this evening. Shame, as it was a rather interesting one. Here’s where I turned inland to head to Mom’s tonight to help with some chores.

Cool looking photos of CB1100s doing what they do.
