Is that Bruce "Director" from Canada that used to have a spyder on the front?

If it is he had a spyder and then sold it....he also did motorcycle safety training in canada as well...

He is a real nice guy....rode with him several times.

Hi everybody. Gail and I were in Europe doing the "High Alps Tour" with Edelweiss Bike Travels. It was an awesome experience. We were two-up on a BMW R1200RT and had the chance to see some incredible Alpine vistas from the seat of the bike. Fun, and kind of scary at times for a low-land guy like me who rarely gets the chance to ride up anything more than a small hill!

After the tour, we rented a car for four days and drove around Germany, Austria, Italy, and Switzerland. We met up with Chris at his vacation home in Italy for a short visit. It was great to actually meet him in person and check out what he has done to his Spyder RT (sound system, seat modification, etc.) Very nice touring rig, but I am not interested in moving back to three wheels from two at this point. Still having a blast with my Moto Guzzi Stelvio. We actually visited the Guzzi museum in Mandello Del Lario, Italy.

I can't post pics from this computer - they are all on my home PC, but I will put a few up as soon as I get a chance.

Hope everyone is well and having a great summer!

Cheers,

Bruce

I am trying to post a short video showing one of the stops we made during our Edelweiss Tour. Let's see if this works. Actually, this link will allow you to look at a bunch of the pics we took as well.
