Hay Ole, If if you go to the Crud again stop by and say hi, I am the the guy with the red CB1100.

Hey Steve. If you go in October? There will be at least two CB1100's there

mine and yours

::D
 
Speaking of Peter Egan, I would love to see Cycle World assign a full review of the CB1100 to him. Maybe we should start an eMail campaign.
 
Ohh yea, but then he'd have to buy one, then he'd sell it, then he'd miss it and have to buy another and go pick it up in his van :rolleyes:
 
Ok, email sent. Thanks for the addy.
 
Sent them an email. Love Cycle World, and I read all of Egan's Editorials. If you have not read Leanings 1 and 2, you must!

I just emailed Cycle World to get Egan a CB1100 to do a long term test on. Here is the email address:CWLetters@cycleworld.com

Peter lives in the country about 10-15 minutes from me. Near Cooksville, WI. On a little farm. I could take mine (when I get it) over to him and let him giver er a rip. But then, I would need to jump on one of his old Brit bikes.

He is a good guy, I have met him a few times at the Slimy Crud he is a very humble fellow
 
Pete is a great guy. He is best of friends. He read the review today in Motorcycledaily.com on the CB1100 and is interested in the bike. He really loves his Bonneville. I found it for him in Denver and delivered it to him in Marne, Iowa.
 
Even if Mr. Egan were to prefer his Bonneville over the CB1100, I'd still love to see him do a review of the Honda. He could write about practically anything and I think that I would enjoy it. I've yet to find a singe column or review that I didn't enjoy. (I keep hoping for a Leanings 3 to come out some day.) Good to hear from those of you who know him that he is as genuine in real life as he comes across to be in his writing. I suppose that truly makes sense if I stop to think about it.

In 2003 Cycle World organized a trip from LA to Milwaukee for the Harley 100th Anniversary events. Peter Egan was having issues with his Hepatitis that (I think) he picked up in Vietnam so he couldn't join us for the ride, but he and the Slimy Cruds and his lovely wife Barbara hosted lunch for us at his house. We got to tour the famous garage (including the then recently restored E-Type) and everything. Indeed Peter is a very humble and interesting person. So were David Edwards and Alan Girdler who both made the entire trip with us. Great memories of a great road trip.:D
 
Hey one of you guys that knows him, get him to pop in here and say Hi
 
I believe he's kinda old school about EVERYTHING isn't he? Lol
