Here are some photos from the MOTOGP in Austin, Texas, I flew up there for the race and met my amigos from Seattle. Austin is a great city, I'm sure we will be back next year.
Marc Marquez Valentino Rossi Collin Edwards Here comes Nicky Race winner, Marc Marquez Texas Ford OG sitting on a new CB1100, Wow just Wow! Not too many Hondas in my past but I did buy a new red CB750 in 1970 and a new red CBX in 1979, this moto takes me back to those days

Great pics, OG.
I also like the CB1100. 1978 T-Bird. I briefly had a 1977 with a 302 2BBL carb. Slow heavy thirsty ill handling beast but very classy and comfortable. A good car, in the 1970's American tradition. :roll:

As always, your photographs are superb, OG! Thanks for posting them. Did you take the action photographs?

Sunset over the Columbia River
Coming back to my home airport in eastern Washington after a day trip to the Wallowa Mountains in Oregon. Mt Rainier is on the horizon ahead, with Mt. Adams off to the left. Mt. Hood was also seen, but does not show up in this picture well.

'GW' attacks Washington state with record low temps! 20 degrees below normal and snow in Snoqualmie Pass today. Linda took this pic today while riding (as a passenger) to Seattle today for a business conference. I wish it would warm up!

Fortunately out here in the desert it is sunny and much warmer, but still well below normal at 59 degrees.

power is not the issue with these brakes, but modulation is something that could have been much better
