Got some FUNNY looks

[joe schmoe]

Due to recent surgery, I am not allowed t lift any thing over 5 lbs, which includes my Vision. So we (the wife and I) took her Spyder to dinner tonight. This is the first time I had ridden it in town.

Man some of these people looked at us, like we were ALIENS :yikes:. This one redneck fella almost lost his jaw when it hit the ground, as he went by us....It was too funny!!!

I'm guessing this is NORMAL for :spyder2: ryders??

What's a redneck Jo? You could have been talking about me. If it were me and I didn't like rednecks I would stay away from Loudon Co. :lecturef_smilie:

Welcome to our world! I was tickled pink to have the Spyder after my surgery last week. I rode the very next day. My doctor was kinder than yours, with a 10 pound restriction, but it is still not enough to lift my BMW onto the centerstand, or even tip it up from the sidestand, so I would have been justy as stranded. I suppose your wife will have to hide the keys now. I swiped my wife's Spyder so often after I rode it the first time, that she eventually made me buy one for myself. nojoke

If you have to ask what a redneck is, then your NOT one...I didn't say I didn't like rednecks, some of my best friends are rednecks. Hell, if I leave East TN most people think I'm a redneck...This guy was just your typical one, driving a beater car, looked like a few teeth were missing, and was wearing a wife beater t-shirt...

I didn't mention all the others that were checking out her Spyder, this was just one of many...We stopped at a redlight and I heard my wife talking through the intercom and what she was saying made no sense, I looked over this older gentlemen and what appeared to be his granddaughter were leaving out the window talking to my wife about her Spyder. Then there were a lot more, just thought it was funny as this was the first time I had ridden it locally to see all the stares and GASPING :shocked: people looking at her Spyder...

So the question is were you the passenger? That might have added to the strange looks. LOL:roflblack:

Ah NO!

 

[boborgera]

I always get strange looks but it usually doesn't have anything to due with what I'm riding.:shocked:

 

[SnoWhite]

Being a female Spyder Ryder I get a lot of strange looks too, but mostly I get a lot of Thumbs up from other females in passing cars.....just makes me smile and move on....love my :spyder2:.
But I agree if you were the passenger, you may have gotten a few more looks then if you were the driver! :roflblack:

[Paula(Butch2025)]

It's an odd day that we don't get our photo taken and lots of looks when we ride our Spyder. It's really weird when they pull next to you at stop signs/signals and start asking questions!!! --Paula

There's about a hundred jokes about Rednecks floating around the edges of this thread that haven't been said... YET!

 

[retread]

Wait till one of them follows you home and asks if they can ride it.nojoke
