Ladies and gentlemen,
I know this is a strang thread but here is what I need. My girl friend just got diangnosed with breast cancer. I was going to paint my 14 RT LTD (which she loves to ride on) pink. She told me she would kick my butt if I did that. I am looking to see if any members of the site have decorated their Spyders for supporting/fighting this cancer. I have looked on the web but all I can find are small ribbion stickers. Any good ideas or pics out there?
Thanks much and cancer SUCKS!!

In reply to the idea of painting the Spyder pink or accomplishing other acts of kindness to show awareness or caring to others, personally I would not lean towards anything more than her requests for now. The entire situation is no doubt complex, and everyone is different. Some are involved in showing support and awareness, while others prefer to carry on keeping life as normal as possible.

In time it may be a pink machine, but for now, learn to be a part by being involved with the situation on a more personal level.

FWIW, that Spyder may be the ultimate getaway machine in the near future.

On a simple idea, you could ask and if allowed, fly the ribbons inside the frunk lid. It will serve as a reminder to you each time you open the frunk. Less than a pink machine, but something that shows you care.

I am a cancer survivor and I agree with this advice. Your unwavering love and support, day in and day out, will go a very long way as this journey unfolds. Both of you will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Fellow Spyder friend.
It's hard when dealing with cancer. Your wife needs support and you by her side.
I am a cancer survivor . I had leukemia 6 years ago and beat it.
Since then, I am a BIG supporter of the Canadian Cancer Society. They really helped me
and my family.
I understand what you are going through my friend, and supporting your wife is what she needs.
After cancer treatment, your life starts again on a new threshold.
We are with you.:thumbup:

That cancer is a bad disease. My sympathy and prayers go out to anybody being affected by it. I would respect her wishes for the spyder not being painted though. :pray:

Sorry to hear the news but the upside is advances for this type have been many and the survival chances are greatly increased. You are lucky to have MUSC nearby. Here is to hoping she will be one of the many. :pray:

My prayers and wishes go out to her and her close friends and relatives. I hope you find a nice alternative for the Spyder that does not include her killing you for pinkifying everything.

i am a prostate cancer survivor for 17 years now and my mom was also a breast cancer survivor for 18 years until strokes took her, the most important thing is to find a doctor that makes her feel comfortable and that the two of you trust. like i said before best of luck to the two of you

I have a "Think Pink" decal on my RT trunk lid. I don't have a web link for it but a search should find it. It has the think pink and a pink ribbon. Much easier than a paint job!

All,
my Girl Friend and I really appreciate all the prayers coming our way and the very sage advice that many sent. One thing I need to clear up....my late wife of 22 years died of a very aggressive type of cancer. She fought 2 long yrs but the cancer won. The Spyder was an incentive for her to get better and go riding. She wanted to, but it never happened. She taught me what a loving relationship can be and to embrace it when it happens. That is what I'm doing now and the bike is a big part of it.....juicey fruit for the soul. We are going to fight this and win....and as one member of our site said...Miles and Smiles on the Spyder.You guys are the greatest.....complete strangers sending prayers and advice from the heart.
Thank you so much. Can't wait for my love to read your comments.
For all of you:bowdown:
