Confession time: I get a little silly when I get on my Spyder

It almost never fails.

No matter what kind of mood I am in, as soon as I start ryding, I get happy. I sing to myself (sometimes with music. Sometimes just making up my own stupid songs). I bob my head to the music. Tap my feet. Move my knees up and down to the rhythm. Whistle. Imagine myself in a totally different world. I feel free. I certainly do not do this when I'm driving my truck. If people only saw my expressions on my face behind my helmet.

Mind you, I said I get silly. I didnt say unsafe.

Anyone else do "strange" things when they ryde?

Yeah! :clap: It's almost as good as valium! :ohyea:

My problem is I do all that, but don't wear a helmet. out there for everyone to see. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

It's perfectly normal. :clap:

:f_spider::spyder2:'s will do that to ya! Riding is still a great pleasure to both Linda and I. :yes:

You found the magic...:clap::clap:enjoy it will always be there....:2thumbs:

You pretty much nailed it.....:ohyea::ohyea::ohyea::ohyea::ohyea:

It's just good therapy for the blues and a long hard week of work. Just think of what you'll do when winter is over.

I have a few times, but out in the countryside where no one can see me, I think, LOL

Yep, I'm doing it too :2thumbs: #SpyderSmyles

Whether i'm on the spyder or in a car, i'm always drumming on my steering wheel/handlebars at a red light :thumbup:

I'll admit to it it also. I do like my acceleration also:ohyea:. Not so much on the :spyder2:--------- But a hopped up ZX-11 or a modded V-Max--- Ya, love the V-boost.

I agree with everything that's been said. It is a very calming fun feeling wish I'd started sooner.

No time like right now!:riding:

Several Time I have caught myself thing that it would be OK to get off and dance around the RT doing a Happy dance, but have resisted so far.

Yeah, a few times I've been caught up in the moment too and thought about doing the same thing.nojoke:yes::yes::yes:

I really like driving my Spyder, because in my normal day I drive a vehicle that is GPS monitored. So I can be a more care free about speed limits.

When I’m riding with my son (and my wife isn’t around) and he guns his Victory I must do likewise...

I enjoy riding my spyder; it's like an open cockpit sports car, responsive and always ready for a hot corner.

When I ride my gold wing, it's sit back in the recliner and look at all the great sceanery going past.

Both are fun, the spyder just gets your blood pumping. :yes::thumbup::ohyea:

probably the only person who wished they worked further away from home ryde in 5 days a week!

My friend, you are NOT alone!! Been there.... still doing it!!:yes:
