Cascading with the R1100S

Hello Folks, I wanted to bring to your attention a magazine article by Peter Egan on Cycle World. He tells about his experience with wife and friends while riding the Northwest on a R1100S. He acknowledges how the R1100S holds its ground as a modern bike even after 13 years on the market.

Nice to see an article of our bike considering there are so many different bikes out there.
