I won the 2014 (?) CB1100 that was raffled off for THe Ride For Kids charity. I get the bike in a week or two.

I have participated in the ride several times including one in 1990s at Marysville Ohio where we got to ride around the Honda test track and tour the Honda motorcycle factory where they use to build Goldwings and Shadows. Also went to the one last year in Knoxville TN on my 2015 Ural cT where I had one of the cancer survivors and her service dog in my sidecar.

There is a ride coming up on October 7th starting at Deal's Gap Motorcycle Resort that I will ride in with a survivor as a passenger in the sidecar.

I have owned lots of bikes in the past 60 years and currently have the Ural plus a DF250RTB and a CT70 clone.

Looking forward to getting the CB1100 and learning about it from you guys. I spend the summer in the mountains of Western NC where the motorcycle riding is fantastic and the winter in Fort Myers FL where at least the weather is nice for riding.

Well it's about time you got a "real" motorcycle Vince!
