    And welcome.

    Now that you are in, there is a rule on purchases and acquisitions, if there is no picture, it did not happen.

    One great place to start is to read the Do's and don't section on the Forum page.

    Welcome, you made a great choice. I just got back from a 3500 mi ride on my 14 RTs at 73 years old. Loved every minute except for the rain. Neil, Ohio

    I too at 64 moved from three to two wheels. I've never had more fun on a bike or enjoyed riding more; I'll never go back. Enjoy and safe riding.

    Welcome Young Feller.

    I made the same transition this past June. Staying in the wind was important to me and I think that choosing a Spyder was the right decision. Have fun!

    There comes a time in life when you really want to stay in the wind, but single-track vehicles are no longer a practical or safe solution. The Can AM Spyder is a wonderful answer to a difficult situation.
