I'm not being cynical, just curious

Pam, with this (GOS) being a ladies only FB page, many women feel more comfortable asking questions regarding their Spyder than they don't on an open forum. We have also become a big family. A couple of years ago, I took my first long solo ride that I called my Meet My Systers Adventure. I was on the road almost a month riding from city to city, and visiting and sometimes even staying with dozens of these nice ladies that I had never met in person. We rode, we chatted, we laughed. I made many lifetime friends. It was a trip that I will never forget of over 3500 miles. This year I took a ride out to Colorado from Florida (6500 miles) and it was an amazing experience. All of this happened, because of GOS and another Facebook page, FEMS (Females Enjoying Motorcycling on Spyders).

New to Spyders, riding, and all
Hi, I saw this post and requested to join the Facebook group. Might be easier to get answers to questions from other female riders then try to read through hundreds of posts here looking. Look for the name Shauna C. Thanks.

to both of you! I don't administer the BOS FB page, so I can't help with that. It could be that the people who do that are on their way home from SpyderFest or are still unpacking, etc.

Enjoy GOS
I enjoy GOS and spyderlovers equally. As a new spyder owner I enjoy learning as much as I can from others.
I have met one person here who is a lifeline for me ... hope to meet him and his wife someday as they only live an hour away.
Love my Spyders

I tried to join but because I do not own mine yet because I am waiting for my disability to be approved I was denied so now I won't request again. I will learn from this site everything I need to know. I do think it would of been interesting to learn from just women when getting ideas what model to buy seeing i have lost all feeling in my right leg but I will keep learning from this site. Good luck everyone trying to join

Okay, is this a gender thing? I'm confused (as usual)....

Don't let a little thing like this initial rejection stop you Arkridia; what with your back surgery & all the things you'll have to go thru just to get around & do whatever you want to do, a knock back like this now just because you don't yet have a Spyder is really only minor on the overall scheme of things! Yes, you could quite possibly consider it petty on their behalf, but hey, who will lose out the most if you don't have another go at joining later?? Altho they might well lose out a little by never having the pleasure of your company or friendship... right now, it looks like in the long term, the biggest loser if you don't persist will be you.
So suck this one up, take it for what it really is atm - just a minor stumble along the road, and go out there & get your Spyder & THEN join!! You will almost certainly benefit the most in the long run, and seriously, as time progresses you WILL get bigger & far more hurtful set-backs, especially now that your mobility isn't quite up to the same standard as that of most others!! Some people seem to take joy in making life hard for others by exercising whatever tiny bit of power over you/your circumstances they may have, and if you show the slightest sensitivity or difficulty with achieving something they can & you can't or that you might have difficulty with whatever, they'll pile it on!! And sometimes, that will mean you end up with some seriously BIG fights that you have no option but to winor knuckle under!! So save your strength for the big ones, & let the little stuff like this one go.... you are better than that, don't let this bring you down to that petty level - brush this re-buff off get yourself sorted & ryding your Spyder, and then join - and maybe even work to change whatever rule stopped you joining when you first needed their support from within!
And don't forget to show us pics when you DO get your Spyder!! Have you checked out the Enabled Spyder Ryders section yet?!? Lots of good ideas for brackets & frame carriers etc in there, as well as intro's from a whole heap of us who have managed to overcome a few different challenges than the 'run of the mill' Spyder Ryders, and a lot of support & help on tap if needed too! Enjoy!!

Thank you for responding I guess you are right with everything going on I did take it personally. I have checked out the enabled rider and Mike even offered to make me a frack for my walker once I get my spyder if I am not able to use a cane by then. I still have not made up my mind on what model but I am leaning towards an st or rs. I know I will not be able to afford a rt. Also, when I test drove the rt I had a harder time looking behind me, maybe that will change with neck surgery but for now this is what I am looking for. My hearing will be within 9 months according to the paperwork I received today. I will continue reading as much as I can on this forum to learn more about my options and maybe when I get my settlement someone on this forum will have one for sale.
