I just returned after a weekend in the San Juans. I noticed two red RTs towing trailers headed east (Maggie Valley bound?), and saw at least 4 more along the Million Dollar Highway and around Durango. One chap even got out of his truck at a gas stop and proceeded to tell me about his Spyder.


Is it me or are Spyders becoming more and more mainstream for the touring set?

Oh,.. and the prerequisite pics:

That car was a little Fiat 500, it looks the same coming or going.


That's a GREAT picture; where was it taken? :thumbup: On the Million Dollar Highway (US550) just north of Silverton.

Ain't that the truth......momentary laps of attention and it'd be enough to scare the bee jeebers out of anyone. ;)

It's not that bad, once you pull the seat from your butt and crawl away from the edge it's actually quite scenic.

It used to be worse ..
