hey Doc we definitely need to find a track and do that. I am with you. Ihave thought the :spyder2: is perfect for a good road course.

You want to ride on one of the most famous road courses in America?

It's a golf course, with the road course going through it.

Honda Classic
Vintage Racing
Porsche

The course

The event

Not advertised, but known by everybody about these parts is the opportunity to go 2 laps around Barbers. Awesome!! Worth the cost of hotel, food, travel to get here for this.

2008, we had 2 Spyders represented.

In addition to the course, the Barbers Motorcycle museum has 4 floors and 1,000 bikes on display. From 1904 to present, believe me, they have everything.

:2thumbs:Yeah, that would be a lot of fun, especially given a group of Spyders! What was up with the pickups with the flashing yellow lights (around 1 minute into the clip)? Kinda spoiled the impression of high speed I'd had up to that point.

One of those passed us on PCH when we were on our way back from the Rock Store with a Hot Blonde in it!:2thumbs:

Greg and I were the first "personally owned" Spyders on Barbers Track. The curators of the museum purchased a Spyder directly from BRP and tested the bike.

The bike, seen here in the preparation warehouse waiting for a spot on the floor.
