| Since we are all so bored post up up a few photos. Places things of interest whatever. As long as you took it no problem. If it's a problem with higher powers then shut it down. Sunrise Allentown PA. 7 AM on the car lot. |

| Delray Beach, Florida, 7:30 a.m. The pigeons are clustered around pigeon feed, which the gulls have no interest in. The gulls are catching unsalted peanuts. This is how I start most days, at least until they closed all the beaches last week. The pigeons fly to me as soon as I set foot on the sand. I ride my Silver Wing or Burgman 650 to the beach. Pretty enjoyable way to kick off a new day. |

| I took those Sept. 2018 on a 4 day ride. I've been there before but bridge was blocked off and really nothing there. Visitor center is nice and many things to learn about that area. PA. route 6 is a good ride for most.
Worth the trip easily spend 2-3 hours there. |

| Photo says it all. A very nice place to visit. Great roads in this area and a nice place to visit. Scenic views and such. 125 foot covered bridge very close in Forksville PA. One of my favorite places to day trip. |

- Don't call the Pandemic Police on me. SW need some gas on Saturday so off I went and got lost. 130 miles. Woke up Sunday and needed more gas then I really got lost 250 that day lucky I found my way back. AS long as everybody was safe on golf courses and out there fishing here in PA. I felt safe.
Worlds End State Park. OH so nice 78 and sunny. We're in lockdown here still, we dropped from Level 4 (everybody stay home except essential services) to Level 3 (everybody should still stay home, businesses that can operate contactlessly are OK, and some exercise activities are OK. So we can now golf, fish, surf, hunt or go mountain biking but are required to "stay local" and not take non-essential trips. So technically a recreational motorcycle ride is not strictly allowed. I might have bent that rule a little...but as you say, so long as others are enjoying their recreational outdoor activities, then it makes no logical sense to preclude a ride. Here's a photo from happier times...this is the foyer of the Honda Collection Hall by the Motegi race circuit in Japan. A wonderful place for a Honda-phile like mysef to visit (2018). |

| Honda was a leader in many ways. Racing bikes-cars a long list of wins and innovations that are in the record books.
They always found a way to win races no matter what. Is that a S 800 Convertible? Sold a few similar ones over here Very rare in US. I'll get a photo I know where one sits in local dealership.
S2000 was last convertible sold is US. A nice car and still see a few on the road. |

| Honda V4 bikes go back to 80's. 1982 VFR and many more. A good design but hard to work on with Carbs. even chaining a air filter was difficult on many. Smooth power and not much vibration from a balanced engine design. Owned a 1999 Magna 750 V4 cruiser . 21 K and sold trader it for something faster. A good bike but moved on. |

| I've owned quite a few V4's over the years... 1982 VF750F 1983 VF400F x 2 1984 VF500F 1986 VFR700F x 2 1986 VFR750F 1988 VFR400 1990 ST1100 1999 VFR800F 2009 ST1300 Actually the ST's would be some of the easiest bikes to work on, with the heads sticking out transversly just begging you to check the valve clearances...and with flip-up tanks, air filter changes are the work of minutes not hours. |

| Re Terry’s photos: the only image appearing on my screen (iPad) is as below. The same thing with my android LG phone, but on my Windows laptop the “images” appear as several full lines of gibberish code. Is anyone else having a similar issue with Terry’s photos? |

| Sorry about that. I have been pasting in links from Google Photos, guessing that is not the done thing on this site? It looks fine to me. Do I need to upload the images into my Gallery first? |
