Closest Spyder neighbors?

[GaryTheBadger]

Which two Spyder owners live the closest to each other, are not related, met after they got their Spyders, but met because of their Spyders?

I'll start: GaryTheBadger and Curly = 4.0 miles

 

[Mo Lee]

MoLee & Bumblebee 4.28 miles Xpeschon is closer however we knew each other before the Spyder.
One even closer but I can't remember his handle.

 

[Erags]

Its only 5 miles to the Interstate and then it is only about 10 miles to Wbbn1952, so I guess I'm way out. we are 10 miles south of town, so everyride is a nice ride. just going to work.

I've got to win this one: me and Spyderflyer. He lives about 200-300 yards from me. He bought his after me but has more miles than me (and more mods). BUT I have the first Spyder in Barstow, the first SE5 in the High Desert, and at the time, one of the few red Spyders. Since then, a few more have been seen in town although I haven't met them yet.

Oh, his wife (I hadn't met them before this occasion) saw my trike at the community mailbox and said how her husband wanted one. So I took it to their home for him to look at. He was sold.

We've yet to meet but Doc lives pretty close to me, as does someone who owns a yellow Spyder that I've seen a couple times. Next time we have a Wed. night without rain I'll go to the big bike event at Quaker Steak to see if there are any other owners in my neighborhood.

Interesting topic--- has to be someone we never met before-- so most direct neighbors would be ruled out--- and if they bought a spyder because they saw yours-- you would have met them before they bought it--- so that doesn't count-- right?

Also assuming NOT as the crow flies?

I live 7 miles from Scotty---- but my shop where the Spyder lives is 2.5 miles.....

Yep, we even picked up the PE Spyders the same day.

Hey, can I count Nancy? :roflblack: We keep our Spyders in different buildings. That should count for something...LOL. :joke:

Ditto here. My neighbor has on 09 Red/black RS. He lives two houses down. He bought his first and "teased" me by letting me ride his. Two months after driving his, I bought mine. It's an 09 black/silver RS. We both work crazy shift work, and have only gotten to ride together twice. We sure turn heads when we ride together.

Doh!I lose. Wait a minute, 2 houses down in Arkansas could be a half mile.

True Dat! I live about 350 feet from my neighbor with the Spyder. Not only does he have a Spyder, he's a great neighbor.

So Scotty does that mean on the day you got your spyders - you weren't speaking to one another.

 

[SpyderWolf]

I guess I lose this contest, as the closest Spyder to me that I am aware of is over 30 minutes away at 60 mph. Then again, my nearest neighbor is nearly a 1/2 mile down the road as well.
