My Ride

[From Honda.com] Every model lineup has its superstar, the one that really showcases what a company can do when they set their mind to it.  That's the Honda Gold Wing, where power, sporting performance and long-range luxury converge harmoniously to create the greatest touring bike ever made. It all starts with an amazing 1832cc 6-cylinder engine, and from there Honda's high-tech wizardry takes long-distance touring comfort and convenience to levels other companies have only dreamed of.

The model I chose has all the performance options: Tire Pressure Monitoring System, heated grips, a heated seat and passenger backrest, foot-level warm-air ducts, GPS navigation package, XM Radio with real-time traffic, Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS), and even an industry's first motorcycle airbag.

It's pretty much a two-wheeled Accord with a permanet sun-roof, but after so many miles on the road I'll take every luxury item they make.  The color is Navy Blue Metallic, and I had to drive to Pennsylvania to find the color/model I wanted.
