Well, it's been a long journey. About 4,500 miles round trip (all solo) but I am back home in Dallas from SpyderQuest. It was an incredible experience with views that will be with me a lifetime!
I have my photos and a couple of videos on my Facbook: https://www.facebook.com/jon.harper.165
My video from Tail of the Dragon is at
Here's a couple of things I learned.
1) AirHawk R seat cushion is a must... if it hadn't of been for a last minute purchase of this awesome thing, I would have never met you all because I probably would have called for a transport back to Texas by Indiana!!
2) Everyone should spend at least a day site seeing in Washington DC; I stayed in Georgetown and loved that area!
3) I passed through 18 states in this journey and NY Harley riders are the least friendly... they must have a lot of insecurity!
4) Places that need to be on your list, or potential spots for events, are: Washington DC, Annapolis, Tail of the Dragon, Tennessee side after the Dragon
5) Siri with voice activated bluetooth via your headset is awesome! I was able to stay connected via phone calls, texts and music without using my hands.
6) Always bring a quart of oil with you on long trips like this... I ended up going through entire bottle, but I rode it pretty hard, very long and sometimes very fast!!
7) My Spyder is an AWESOME machine... ran absolutely beautifully without any problems!
8) Lastly, I met a lot of fantastic people along the way... Americans, Canadians, others I don't know where from... SpyderQuest was amazing and I would absolutely encourage anyone, from anywhere, to try it at least once... you won't be disappointed. In fact, it was a couple here on SL that were from Canada (and I don't remember their names off hand) that told me I wouldn't be disappointed - I certainly was not - thank you!!
