Being the peak riding season is also our peak business season, I do not usually get very much time to ride any of my bikes. :(

Most times they sit much more than they ever get ridden, the Spyder as well.

Last evening after installing the BRIGHTSIDES and new Day Runner Pucks I took the SM5 out for a test ride.

About half way into the ride I realized that I was really smiling as I rode the Spyder around town. That now after almost 3 seasons it still makes me smile as I ride it. :D

I know the Spyder has it's growing pains as many new products have, but this is one of the few bikes I have that now after 40 years of riding still makes me smile just riding it around town. :ohyea:

I know this reverse trike concept will continue to grow going forward, and can see a reverse 3 wheeler in my garage for quite some time.

It's nice to know that overall I made the right choice in the Spyder to have fun while riding 3 years ago. :thumbup:

I really miss not ryding this year. I am hoping that my hip is good for next season. I'll be major bummed if I only get it serviced and ready to go only to have to sell it.

So here's to the Spyder and all the fun in brings to our lives!!

"Still puts a smile on my face...."

No truer words have ever been spoken. Since I have owned my Spyder I have to force myself to ride the HD. My Spyder has been out of commission for almost two weeks because a deer wanted a close up and personal look at my Spyder. I didn't think it would be that bad being without, after all I have the Sporty just sitting there in the garage. I rode the Sportster all last week to work, took it out for a long ride last Saturday and it hasn't been out of the garage since. It just doesn't do it for me anymore. Just counting the days until Spydy returns home.

I couldn't agree with you more Evan. It has almost been a year since I purchased my Spyder, and it definitely makes me smile every time I get a chance to ryde it.

Here's hoping you get quite a few more rydes in before the winter comes. :cheers:
