    Default Great Easter afternoon ride.

    Indeed! No one had told me how much fun a RS-S is in first and second gear on a mountain road running from 5 to 8 grand on the rev counter! MERCY! I had run the Brushy Mountain road south of Wilksboro, NC many times on two wheels, but this Spyder thang is a hoot!

    It's awesome isn't it! Glad you're really enjoying the RS-S. My wife and I got out for an Easter ride too. It was our first ride of the season, and first in 7 months!

    The Spyder is a more physical experience than a bike on those sort of roads and to me that's part of the fun.

    One of the gorges near here has a series of tight hairpins with short straights that are best done in 1st/2nd with plenty of revs - it's one of my evening routes when I want to 'relax':-)

    My ride must have been good for me as I was released by the surgeon and physical therapist today. My Bowflex will be my new friend. Yes I got the cup!

    No doubt there! I swear these "reverse trikes" (lol) were made for the winding back country roads. Truly a wonderful experience! Cheers!
