We live on the outskirts of Ottawa where there are lakes, hills, & country roads everywhere - it is not uncommon for my drive to work to take 2 to 3 hours instead of 20 minutes... some mornings are...

This is the piece that broke on us while driving the tail of the dragon in the smokey mountains TN August 8th. (It was still safe to drive only leaned a bit in the turns) We were told this...
woohoo we are in! See you folks next month! (we are currently touring the sky line parkway, then later this week smokey mountain parkway then the return trip via blue ridge parkway - we are having a...
I'm assuming when they buy the tickets for our reservation (once we send in our registration and money) they will reserve a group of tables just for the group so we can enjoy the cruise together. At...
I sent in a US money order with my registration but I am concerned it may not get to you before Aug 1st (we are in Ottawa ON). Is there anyway I can email you a scanned copy of the money order &...
FYI: The event was full but I emailed them anyway requesting a spot in the case of any cancellation - I got in and had a great time.
BRP provided free parking downtown (even if you weren't staying...

Hi Betzy Girl - I just finished my Spyder driving course at Georgian College in Barrie Ontario - at the end of the class they do your testing and you just take the sealed results to your local MTO to...
If you want to have fun then make the investment in your fun! Spyders aren't cheap but they are worth every dime (at least to me).
As for the steering issues - trust me I had the same issue 3...
We are also driving from Ottawa, Ontario - let us know when you plan on leaving as we may be able to meet up to share the road.

Filled out the registration and mailed it with a US money order (as we are in Canada). How can I confirm if you receive our registration in time? Can I email a scanned copy to you just to confirm? ...
This will be our first year participating. Like others we are coming down from Canada (Ottawa, Ontario) so a paypal link is easier for us (my dad had a bad time trying to get his bank to accept my US...
We call her "Honeymoon" (NO kids allowed) - just "Honey" for short which fits with her gold color. Love our new 2013 Spyder RT
We got our Spyder RT-S 2013 at the beginning of June and have noticed issues with wobble at high speeds. We were informed by our service tech not to drive it at high speeds until it can be serviced...
