Hybernation

[Deanna777]

It was a sad day, today ( I am fine) but I put my spyder into hibernation, :gaah:.

This winter ( Gold Fungus, instead of White fungus) I'm trying a new winter sport, to get me thru until next spring. When the spyder riding season starts. Stay Tuned!

The cold weather has not hit yet, the weather is like early summer (60's & 70's). But my significant other is still riding his F3T, will probably ride until the snow hits, but I could still ride with my significant other, as a back seat passenger.

It made it to 80° today but my wife and I went to Quincy to see her brother in the Veterans Home. We were going to ride our Spyder but decided to take the car and get paint and some heating ducts for our living room we are remodelling. We did get out for about 45 miles but the wind was pretty strong and she doesn't like getting her head blown around!:banghead:

We picked a bad time to remodel, what with the hurricanes driving up the prices on building materials and trying to squeeze in as much riding as we can before the weather changes.......which is going to start going downhill tomorrow, at least for a week or so.

We lost a month during July getting our stator repaired but we still have put on over 12500 miles since getting it just after the 4th of July, 2016. Not too bad considering my work schedule pretty much eliminated riding after the first of September until the following June.

We cant even spell hibernation here in Arid-Zone-A. Must be an old Indian word meaning superior tribe......?

I ended up putting on 6,020 miles for the total riding season. Started riding season on April 2, 2017 @ 16,013 miles and ended the riding season on Oct. 21, 2017 with 22,033 happy miles.

Next during the riding season I have to have the 25K service done on the spyder.

Going to wait another week before I finalize the numbers. Got snow last night (a little more than an inch--but white and pretty), supposed to have high 30's to low 40's and some rain this week. Maybe a couple more rides before its final. But--in the meantime--the battery tenders are all hooked up.

Stay tuned: :yes::yes:

I'll Hibernate when I'm Dead!

Put in about 1,000 miles of back country 'Bama riding over the past 2 weekends....with views like the attached photos. Winter? Bah!

 

[ARtraveler]

Very nice. :2thumbs::2thumbs:

I got my first motorcycle in October 2010. I wanted to ride so it wasn't "put away" for that winter. After that, I've ridden year-round here in Baltimore as long as there's no snow on the ground.

I just got my first Spyder 3 months ago. For the same reason it won't be put away. Keeping them running keeps them happy and healthy. I'm glad I don't live in an inhospitable environment.

The weather man/women says we are going to get rain( much needed, the rivers are very low).

I wonder if I have you bet on the mileage #'s for the season.

We don't have any of the snow yet( White/Gold):roflblack:. The spyder is on the tender now/ @ dealership.
