    Default Just Get Happier Every Day

    My wife and I finally pulled the trigger on a '14 Spyder RT-S a couple of weeks ago. I have been riding in various conditions to acquaint myself with this new 'triple touch' and I am loving the experience. She has only taken a short ride but is just as pleased with the experience as I. We have penciled our calendars for the spring events we wish to use the Spyder to enjoy. The blue bonnet season here in the Texas Hill Country is just around the corner. All I can say is what the heck took us so long!!!

    Enjoying the forum and I'm soaking up all the knowledge being shared thru the experiences of others.

    I envy you your weather that you can go out and practice that "triple touch" frequently. Ma Nature keeps my odometer at 10 miles. Maybe I'll get some saddle time in this weekend when it supposed to be dry and in the mid 40s.

    Welcome!
    I'm among the crew waiting for better weather, although I have ridden a little - across the street, around the block etc. Otherwise the @+*#&! condo association has a fit.
