He T-boned a car. It's usually the other way around; but, Bob had to be different.

Bob,

Let me know when you will be riding with your dog; you did get one, didn't you? I was gone for awhile and am not sure. Anyhow, our dog is always looking for another dog to terrorize. Next NY Gawker outing we may bring her.

Glade you got the spyder back.

That's because he's not allowed to ride more than 25 miles from home, And according to NHTSA, most accidents happen within 25 miles of home.:roflblack:

Always thought that statistic was skewed. Most people rarely have a need to drive further than 15 miles from home. At least those living in the city.

Why is it so "darty" and unstable? :shocked:

Glad you are a Spyder Ryder, again (and alive to complain about the crappy service). Check out what it costs to have a Spyder shipped from NY. to Cuba, MO. That might knock 110 days off of your next repair. Are you going to make it to SpyderFest this year, Bob?

Some of it... They changed the oil, re-shod by Spyder and put in new rear wheel bearings... But the farkle installation got missed! :gaah:
