    Default Spyder Sightings on the road to Valcourt

    We left from Hurricane UT on Tuesday and spent the first night in Fort Morgan CO didn't see any Spyders that day. On Wednesday at our first gas stop we met Bob and his wife (who's name I didn't get) who are from the Denver area. They aren't on spyderlovers or Facebook but have owned their Spyder for a few years.

    We spent last night in the Des Moines Iowa area and we saw a group 5 or 6 Spyders with Iowa plates on the interstate.

    If you're on your way to Valcourt and you run into other Spyders post your sightings here.

    Default Saw Iowa folks again!

    Ran into the Iowa crew again! At a gas station, had a chance to chat. They are going to Niagra Falls! Must be crazy! We made Apalachin, NY. 600 miles or so. Flawless machines! A tiny bit of rain, some spray, clouds, gray. Looping thru the Eastern provinces, then back west to Valcourt. Fun!!!

    You will love NS and Cape Breton. Did that one back in 1997.

    Default Spyders in Pembroke Ontario Saturday

    On our way to Valcourt. Sat at a Boston pizza 16 Spyders from Gatineau Qc were out for their Sat ride. Not going to Valcourt this year as some had met a group from France last year and BRP gave them the pre 10th tour. We will be in Valcourt tomorrow. Will see you there. Bob

    Today we rode to Bar Harbor and saw one Spyder heading the opposite direction. I'm thinking they were local.

    Leaving Thursday morning. Unfortunately in the cage. Wife can't ride yet. One month from total knee replacement. It wasn't planned this way that's for sure. Patti see you in Valcourt. Or Drummandville. Tom
    Baloo is my name. Spyders are my game. Well, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, yes, it's a doo-bah-dee-doo, I mean a doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee, doo-bee-dee-doo. And, well, now. Ha ha! What have we here?

    On the way to Johnson Creek, we pulled off the highway for gas and ran into Lamont and Joan. Also had a nice gentleman, Larry, catch up to us as we were gassing up near Vail. He was riding an RT-Ltd. You know what Lamont and Joan ride.

    I was near St. Clair, Mich this afternoon and way a man on a white Spyder (RT, I think) going the opposite way. No trailer, packs, etc. I think he was local.

    Then when I got back to the hotel there were two couples from near Kansas City, Mo on their way to Homecoming.
