Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting a Canadian motorcycle legend and displaying my 2010 Spyder RTS next to three of his rare bikes. We spend our winters at Crystal Lake RV Resort in Naples, FL where we own a motor coach lot. Yesterday the park held Fun Day events throughout the park including a "Big Boy's Toy Show" outside our toy storage units. To my surprise I setup our Spyder next to Bar Hodgson's 1955 Vincent Open "D", 1947 Vincent "GungaDin", and 1940 Indian 4-cylinder. Bar happens to be a neighbor of ours in the resort and usually brings down three or four rare bikes each winter. Bar has a collection of 278 rare bikes and I had the pleasure of spending several hours talking with him learning a great deal about his very interesting life.
