    Default Surprised on recent ride

    Over the last week my wife and I decided that we wanted to spend some time away from where we live and get away. We decided to go camping and riding in West Virginia. It has been a while since I have been in West Virginia and geez - it was absolutely beautiful. Just a landscape that I could fall in love with either just staring at it or riding through it.

    Now the surprise - in all of the time that I have owned my Spyder, I have seen few of them on the road. Seemingly fewer when riding. I saw the proverbial boat-load of them this past week. Everything from RTs to Rykers. Some cruising the God-awful DC beltway, others flying through the mountains. There was even another RT in the campground. It brought a smile to my face to see so many.

    If you happen to be somewhere between Buckhannon, WV and DC over the past week give me a shout - maybe we saw each other.

    Spyders are accumulating on the roads. I used to see one or so per month. Now it's two or three each week down here in Mississippi. Keep on riding

    WV is beautiful country and some great roads in which to ride. Regarding the proliferation of Spyders, same here. That is why I personally no longer post sightings. See so many on a summer weekend it is not necessarily 'unique'.
