    That's awesome! I'm guessing those miles were on more than one Spyder?

    Default Awesome..!!

    Fred and his wife cherrie ryde with us often. Sorry I missed the momentous occasion but know they will be enjoying many more miles. They travel to most all the events across the US during the year. Congratulations to them.. they are great people and if you ever wanted to tour New Zealand on bikes check with them they have tours going on over there as well. We should ask how many mile they have on two wheelers as well...

    It was a beautiful day and we had a great ride. Watch for Fred's blog on Can-Am's website, there were some cool videos taken of him crashing through the banner and the Route 66 sign. We missed you, Gene, will you be at the IMS show in Long Beach next weekend?

    We should ask how many mile they have on two wheelers.

    I remember when He passed the 1,000,000 miles on two wheels, and that was a while ago.

    Fred said he did the same thing at 1 million on two wheels, 22 years ago! Same buddy took pictures then, too! Fun, 378 mile romp. Congratulations, Fred!
