Took a ride on this cold windy day to Clearwater. Went to Quaker Steak & Lube to check out the Biker Build. Not really impressed this year, some cool stuff but nothing over the top.

Bumped into Jack his Daughter and a friend of his, I suck with names, but I know I rode with him once. Anyway, I took a few pictures for all the wussy's that were to cold to ride down with me  Grin

If anyone tries to tell you there is nothing that bad about getting old they're either lying or it's already started to affect their mind.

Nice pics Nick.
Too cold and windy so I made the call to cage it there so the day would not be a total loss. I'm glad we did because wind was blowing pretty intense on I-4.
My friend, Ron, lucked out by finding a seat for his Harley Ultra Classic for $150, new seat that an upholstery guy had taken on a trade in. He was really happy with his find.


Here is a couple of more pics.

We got there around 1PM walked around had lunch and we were out of there by 3pm. Not much going on because of the wind and temps, so I didn't see hide nor hare of any bikini's as that would have kept me there a bit longer  Grin

The engine is a CX-500 Custom or CX-650 Custom made by Honda, they were also available and offered as the Honda Silver Wing (the Silver Wing had a fixed fairing, bags and a trunk) back in the 1980's (The mini Gold Wing), I had a 1980 Honda CX-500 Custom for over 30 years, it was a great bike, I just out grew it and ended up getting rid of it before my daughter was old enough to take seriously about riding motorcycles. Boy I wish I could get that one back. Although she is very happy with her current bike. Some very nice bikes.
