Let's see your CB1100 out on the road!

[Wisedrum]

To find it out, buy and ride one!

It's easy and beautiful.6

... maybe, but there is a shadow covering the boot MTC. Otherwise, the deal of the day looked good.

The shadow over my boot was intentional. I was too lazy to stand up, but didn’t want my super-cool TCX boot to distract from the scene.

On autumn days like this sometimes I wonder what a half and quarter CB1100 lump would feel like between the knee caps.

What’s a “half and quarter CB1100 lump” ?

Something like an inline-twin, and a single thumper.

I thought he meant:

(1100 ÷ 2) + (1100 ÷ 4)

= 550 + 275 = 825cc

Not sure why it would make a difference which season we’re in, but at least now I understand he was referring to displacement.

I was wondering when somebody was going to point out the reference to the season. Well done MTC.

So what does he win? Enquiring minds want to know. We might try harder next time.

Totally forgot to mention that my cigar stop last week was at a movie landmark.

Had time to enjoy a cigar and the view from a bluff overlooking Glencoe Beach, Glencoe, IL

Figured you might prefer to see more of the view and less of the cigar.

Nice ride in the U.P. (Upper Peninsula of Michigan) last Tuesday. Temps were in the mid 70's with lots of color. I dragged along a few friends along on their Harleys for the experience. Last night some of the areas we rode got over 10 inches of snow.

Dang. Already? :-/

12/29/2022 - 55° Fahrenheit, cloudy, and very little chance of precipitation. Commuted to work and rode out to lunch a new taqueria that just opened. Had 3 tacos - carne asada, al pastor, and de pescado. All delicious. Today's riding, as reported in "Today's Weather" was a little mucky, but I’ve stopped complaining since I remembered that this is the second anniversary of my first and failed attempt at riding in a blizzard.

I had no idea that this was the anniversary of my wreck until I returned to the office. Pretty spooky that I was parked in virtually the same spot today as where I left my hobbled bike two year's prior.

On 12/29/2022 I ate tacos

On 12/29/2020 I ate s*#t.

Spooky MTC, but I am glad to read that you weren't spooked.

 

[Nachodaddy]

Glad you got to enjoy a great ride and tacos! Obviously worth going back for.
Can't ask for more.

 

[Cormanus]

Much better outcomes all round MTC.

The local BMW group has a New Year’s breakfast. It convenes at 8:00am. They call it “New Year’s Biker Breakfast”. I think it should be renamed “Breakfast for Riders Too Old to Party on New Year’s Eve”. Regardless, it’s a nice way to start the new year and because the weather today was reasonable, I got 40 miles in.

Only three people rode. That’s about the average for this event.

“Breakfast for Riders Too Old to Party on New Year’s Eve”.

:rofl:


Confession: I was asleep by 9:30 yesterday :banana: Party on!

Good one EmptySea. Like Ferret, I was well out for the count before midnight on the 31st.
