Been there, done that. Be very carelfull when you ryde thru the railroad tunnel to get to Whittier. It was hard enough to do on a 2 wheeler (I was on a Harley in 2006) but with the 2 fronts wheel you will need to pay attention.

We went in a pouring down rain storm and hope that does not happen to you. When you get to Whittier you will know what is ment by "I see the light at the end of the tunnel". It should be a great ride and have fun.

Would you allow an ex-Spyder owner to attend? If Phil brings his RT trailer, at least a former part of my RT Spyder will be there! nojoke
Tofriendscreek will be there and he bought my original Spyder GS. Does that count? Would like to see some of my old friends. I really miss the Spyder community friendship :chat:.

I think I made Phil :cus: at me a few years ago when I put a cold bottle of water on his neck in Cuba, MO. :( I promise to be nice. :thumbup:

I promise to wear one of my SpyderLover's t-shirts. :D

Thank you for your kind offer. We will give you a shout if we are able to free up some time en route to Anchorage.

We will be at the Seward Military Resort after embarking at Whittier and headed to Talkeetna when we leave there.

You folks will like Seward. The ryde from Seward to Anchorage is one of the best when it comes to scenery. We are about 30 miles North of Anchorage (about 1/3 of the way to Talkeetna).
