    Default 2013 Spyder ST gets the boot!

    Certainly this is a first. The hospitable city of Dallas booted 5 Spyders for parking violations, including Lamont's 2013 ST. $105 fine each. Poor Harvey had to pay to set two Spyders free.

    Dinner just got a lot more expensive.

    "Hawkeye" used to be one of my fave character in MASH.

    Disappointing now to see that name used in a parasitic context by our clamping brothers.

    thats another tip from the spyderlovers

    you should always have a complete spare wheel on board - if you visit a state like this - (adventures-tours)

    Not the kind of "hometown welcome" I would like to see for you guys. Sorry! Hope you don't hold it against us! Lamont looks pretty amused by it in the pictures, so was Harvey twice as amused?

    Ouch! Hawkeye Parking Enforcement looks like a private company, do they work for the city of Dallas or do they just patrol their own parking lots?

    It's the out of state plates that did it. I like the very professional uniform the guy writing the tickets is wearing. What a crock of compost. Was there any kind of sign posted advising the parking rules?

    When each parking spot is numbered, there is usually a metal box on a pole with a correlating number on little mini boxes (like the P.O. boxes at the Post Office). You take the money and push it through a slot with the same number on it and you are good to go.

    I am sorry though, that this happened in my hometown.

    Default 2013 Spyder ST gets the boot!

    There was a sign but, someone was given bad info.. They were all troopers about not letting it ruin their good time though.
    The price to unboot the bikes was a bit ridiculous however!
    It's not like they were there for all day
    Silver lining... No one had to wait until Tuesday to get it removed.
