    Default Spyder is out of Hibernation

    HI All,

    My spyder is out of hibernation. I took a ride on my spyder today.

    It was nice to get back in the saddle again.

    Same this afternoon, over here in New York's Catskill Mountains. Just a 45 mile loop to dust off the muscle memory and make sure the machine feels solid.

    Got mine off life support (Battery Tender) last weekend and rode for the first time since having a hip replaced. Good to get out of the house and enjoy some delayed spring weather here in Northern NV!

    After 2 days of replacing rotten "treated" boards on my front deck...a 2hr ride on my RT cleared the cobwebs and made me smile. (But I'm sore this morning!) Need to ride more and work less!

    I had to replaced rotted steps on my deck over the weekend so I feel your pain. Next project is replacing the decking boards and rails. I'm not letting that project ruin my chance of riding like the steps did this past weekend. Bummer to waste such nice 80° and sunny weather.

    Deanna it was spitting snow this morning. We’re suppose to get up to 2 inches tonight and possible 2 inches tomorrow! It was an awesome weekend though I agree. I put close to 850 miles on last thursday-Sunday. Rode my spyder to work every day last week. We too beat our previous highest temp records. We hit 87 inland while the lake areas stayed at mid 70’s, it was awesome. The roads are definitely clean after all the rain for the past 2 weeks. Still a lot of wind and tree limb damages on the back roads after all the tornados and microbursts. It will be in the 70’s by next weekend so put on tender for a week and pray “ NO SALT ACID METAL EATING BRINE” is dropped!
