    I ran into the same issue here in Virginia. The three wheeled riding course proved to be a good option if for no other reason than getting time in the saddle.

    Tim, please post pics of your wheelchair rack when finished. I'm curious to see how it is rigged. I'm still in the research stages, but am curious how folks haul their chairs.

    For those of you that are interested, or have been following, I’ve been documenting my spyder journey here from initial test ride up through licensure and beyond. My first ever exposure to the...

    Thank you for doing that man! If nothing else, I think this could potentially give BRP an advertising avenue that they may not have thought about. When you look at the current advertising for the...

    Unfortunately the width of the saddle on a full sized spyder is too wide for my legs to splay. They’ll do it, but not without a noticeable degree of discomfort. Then again, a few hours on the Ryker...

    I was literally just on the phone with a local spyder tech who also happens to be a wheelchair user discussing this very issue. Apparently the aftermarket has yet to put out a ryker specific variant...

    Glad I’m not the only one with the “splay” issue. I took a course to get my license this weekend and ran into the same problem. Stuck to the Ryker precisely due to its narrow width.

    *disclaimer: wasn't really sure where to put this, but I figured it was general discussion*

    Well, after over a decade of lusting, I finally got to throw a leg over a Can Am. BRP hosted the ride...

    This is really interesting post, it's always fun to see that even the spyder veterans were newbies like myself at one point.

    I saw Transformers 2 for the first time yesterday, and although brief, I thought the spyder's appearance in the film was cool. Those phantoms looked really cool with the NEST graphics and military...

    Outstanding! My main concerns would be a solid attachment point, and easy load/unload of the segway, as it is my mobility device and I am not able to lift it in and out of a trailer.

    Although expensive, worst comes to worse I would think you could run a handbrake, floorboards and risers.
