this one did not have the lens issues I wish I would have got the climb but i was digging so much I could not let off to get to the camera
Also everyone should know that if it was not for doc's help before and at the event I would not have made it there and almost surely not made it back. I know he has the same faults as I do in the respect of running his mouth a little too much at times but doc can ride, helps out spyder lover members a ton and is all around in it for his friends. Thanks again brother.
Also for those who were not there , dan (Firefly) helped out joy is a seriously kick ass way with having a extra spark plug wire for here. Spyder lovers unite.

I got a few more I got to go thru.
My hands were sweating just watching that video when you were passing...:yikes:.....I was sticking to the inside as much as i could,and I finally left the ride group because I was going at a slow pace!...What beautiful country.. I had never been there before..You couldn't get the same affect in a car..Quote:

Thanks for letting me ride passenger with you....what a ride!!!!!
Judy and I did that million dollar hwy a few years ago in our SUV coming up the other way. We have no PICTURES:opps:.. Someone was hanging on. Not going to mention any names (Judy). But hope to revisit that area in July and she says it will be much better for her
this time on the Spyder because she can see the road and feels better knowing where the edge is.;) Thanks for the preview it was really cool. Can't wait!
Great videos. I love it. The last time I did this ride I was in my motorhome.
Seth, it was cool to see you again in Durango. Very cool video. nice to see people pulling over to allow you by. Hope to make it to SpyderFest next year and see you again. Ride safe friend.
Tom
I think I heard the next Spyderfest is in Hawaii if the bridge is done.
Those videos are wicked. I was holding my breath for half of it. You're a heck a rider, dude.

You should come ride up here with the guys and I, its a little faster than this and a hell of alot more fun. I did get pulled over and got a verbal warning about 100 miles form home. Always testing, I wish BRP would give me a real motor and some upgraded brakes so I could make some better videos.
DOUBLE YELLOW LINES.....WHAT DOUBLE YELLOW LINES?:pray:
I found that especially in CO whoever made those yellow lines was high as **** or blind, where I saw them as passing lanes at times there was NO way I would have passed there but the doubles you could see for a mile. Its strange that a state with that much twisty elevation would skimp on that.Besides, usually they are just for semi's anyway.Quote:

I could not agree with you more, and they seem to be more on the west side of the stateQuote:
