Riding Gold Wing Style

When this motorcycle gang rides into town, they’re not looking for beer or whiskey shots, but they might clean you out of ice cream. And maybe marshmallows.

They’re the Gold Wing Touring Association, an international motorcycling club, and the bikes they ride are comfy and cozy. The bikes have well-padded, heated seats, and the favorite activities of passengers are reading, sleeping and knitting. Gold Wings are Honda touring motorcycles, and owners say they can ride an average of 600 miles per day with ease. The bikes cost from about $20,000 to $25,000 new. They have Global Positioning Systems, heated handlebars, and you can even buy them with airbags.
