    Default New to spyder world, now I have twins

    I am new to the spyder, and now I have twins. almost.
    It all started when I was snowmobiling and loved it.
    Then the snow melted, and I got sad.
    I needed something to make me happy again.
    OK, idea, install wheels on my Ski Doo 1200 renegade snowmobile.
    I found a picture, and my dream was answered.
    Found the guy that did the work, and then found out that there not road legal anymore.
    Now comes the spyder.
    I found the can-am spyder riders course, and signed up in July.
    I found a new 2017 RT-S spyder at my local dealer and purchased it.
    To bad I had to trailer it home since I did not have my license.
    With license in hand it was time to ride something i just purchased and never rode before.
    I put 3000 miles on it in 3 months.
    Well my wife to be wanted one, well back to the dealer to see what they have.
    Found a new 2018 RT limited in September.
    I think this could have been one rode at the riders course.
    She got the 2017 and I got the 2018.
    It worked out great, she did not like the 2018 dash, and I was thinking I missed out when I got the 2017, that I was missing the upgraded dash.
    We both got what we wanted.
    Sorry for the long story.
    It was fun to tell.
