    Default Back in the saddle...

    Well, sort of. Just bought a 2009 Spyder from a fellow SpyderLover. Should be all finalized in few days and back on the road as soon as it is titled and registered. Sold my 2012 about 2 months ago, but was missing it every weekend I was home. Decided to get back on to the road, even if it is only on weekends.

    The yellow beast is in my garage. Will take few days to get the title, register it and get it on the road, but it is safely tucked away for now. Going from SE to SM, so will take a bit to get used to gearing again, but I am sure I will manage. Was scratching my head trying to figure out how to put a SM into Reverse and gave up, been a long day at work, so I am sure I'll get it tomorrow. Thanks guys for the "welcome backs" and cool videos. See you on the road.

    You just have to put it in first, then reverse. Can't get there from neutral.
