Is that a Slingshot sitting behind your bike in the picture?? :dontknow:

 

[PhillyF3]

Yes. Its my buddies. I have one too. 2016 LE Black...Very Cool and fun to ride. Where Im I going to find the time to ride both? :2excited::2excited:

 

[Bob Denman]

I have a feeling that your Slingshot will end-up only getting the occasional "pity ride"... :shocked:
There's a fellow in North Philly (I think..) who does a GREAT job of customizing Spyders.
I believe that his name is "Lou".... :thumbup:

Thanks, Rob! :thumbup:
I started talking about them, and got lost after "Lou"... pps:
Once the memory leaves; it seems like a wild stampede out the door! :banghead:

I didn't know anything about this guy, but living near Philly I was curious. The information you posted was enough to quickly find him. ...and of course I HAD to post that picture.


...And PhillyF3, I agree. That new black-on-black F3 of yours is VERY sharp. :thumbup: Welcome to the forum.

My husband and I are in the Lancaster area, abound 1.5 hrs from Philly. We go there for Beck's Cajun and to go to Revzilla. We ride two wheels mostly, but just got the Spyder. We ride on the weekends. You're welcome to join us. We're into cars too if you want to take out the slingshot (Camaro, Challenger, etc).

My wife and I do just the opposite. We ride from the Philly area out toward Lancaster, grab food at the Lancaster Brewery and then head back. Sometimes we do an overnighter at the Lancaster Arts Hotel.

You don't ride out toward the Pine Barrens? :dontknow:
I've got a "collegiate co-conspirator", that lives in Hadden Heights. He's got an insurance Agency in Audubon.

We go to Philly once every few months. We ride in Lancaster.

I don't know if Doug would agree with me, but the Pine Barrens of NJ, are not all that interesting for a Spyder ride, IMO. Now if you were off-roading it would be quite a different story. Hundreds of miles of sandy roads in there. The paved roads that go through the area are really kind of boring, IMO. Nothing much to see, like there is in the mountains up where you live and further north. That said, flying over the Barrens in a small aircraft can be quite beautiful and interesting - perhaps more than a little interesting if you are not paying attention and wander into McGuire AFB air space. (Don't ask me how I know that. )

Great to see so many responses! I tried this a while ago with not much luck so very excited! Welcome to the forum and I'm 5 min outside Phiily and am looking to ride with some folk this season!

 

[Jenfz09]

The Philly area is pretty populated, so I'm sure that are lots of us with Spyders who ride locally.

We are riding to Gettysburg on Saturday from Lancaster with a bunch of Spyders. PM me for info if interested, if anyone is near us.

Riding through the pines is a pretty boring ride. We'll do a back road ride down to cape may, take the ferry, then ride back up from Delaware.

Its really hard to beat the back roads through Pa though....

Boring? I enjoy the quiet ride; it gives me a chance to relax...

THANKS FOR THE WARM WELCOME!:2thumbs:

Looking forward to meeting great people and taking long rides! I will be reaching out to Lou pretty soon. Wanna put some miles on the bike first.

Don't get me wrong, there is some nice riding out through the pines, especially heading toward the shore for sure. However, the curvy/hilly back roads heading out toward Lancaster are much more fun, and much more scenic too.
