• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Spyder Sightings

Afternoon of May 24

Couple on white spyder pulling a 662 trailer. He was dawning rain gear....I think. West of Pikes Peak access road. Was our first spyder sighting of the trip. The next came days later, again, in Colorado. And that was it. Just two, in four thousand miles. :shocked:
 
Your comments are well taken. A group of us Spyder Ryders have formed NISR - Nebraska-Iowa Spyder Ryders and are looking for additional members. Everytime we see a Spyder on the street we try and hail them down??? Unfortunately, they are always going the opposite direction or in heavy traffic. Any other suggestions on how to find other Spyder Ryders would be appreciated. The dealers do not want to give out their sales lists????????
BIG F

Have you tried these ?

saw a Spyder today

A first for me, I saw another Spyder on the road today. About 1700 on Basin Street in Ephrata, WA. there was a Red Spyder headed North as I headed South on my way to the store.
Things are looking up.

Have you seen someone unfamiliar riding a Spyder ? Maybe you were out riding, or you saw one drive by while you were standing on a corner ? Describe the Spyder and where it was. Who knows, maybe you'll make a new friend.

Great Idea! :bowdown: Yellow Spyder on Snively Rd here in town.... about a week ago. I know that there are some around here, but don't often see one.
 
saw my second spyder on the road sunday about 12
:30/1pm.
silver rt heading south on rt. 22 in brewster (were you headed to red rooster for lunch).

Saw 5 spyders in 1300 miles

Here is a recap of Spyder sightings in 1300 miles:

1 and 2. Saturday Morning, Saw the 2 Spyders about 20 miles apart outside of Oklahoma City traveling west as I was traveling east. One was white, the other I believe was Cognac (quick glance trough Road barriers and traffic).

3. Saturday Evening, Saw a Blue one traveling east as I was traveling west on the West side of Oklahoma City.

4 and 5. Traveling South on Highway 87 about 15 miles north of Plainview Texas. 1 Yellow and 1 white RT's. Passed me as I was pulling a trailer. Good thumbs up from each other and continued on our way.

1st outing with the trailer. Must say pulled very well and could hardly tell it was back there, until backing. Took some practice, but have the backing down very well now. Fuel mileage was better than 42 MPG with a 30 mile an hour wind at my back. Around 30 - 32 with a strong cross / head wind. Not to bad. Total trailer load was about 270 lbs.

:yes:
 
Route 23 NNJ Sunday 14 June

Sightings of MANY Spyders at Johnston Ridge, Mt. St. Helens, WA

My son saw quite a group of Spyders on Saturday, June 13th, at Johnston Ridge, Mt. St. Helens, Washington. Were any of you folks part of that group?:D
 
I saw a lady on an RS the other day in Crater Lake NP. She was going the opposite way around a curve and must have been focused on crossing the double yellow line because she didn't wave. Later, she approached me at the lodge and indicated that was her and her husband was following on a 2-wheeler. Nice folks. She asked about my RT and didn't know much about the new models. Her RS is a 2009 model. I told her about SL.
 
My one and only sighting here in Mexico. Near my ranch I saw a Spyder, had no idea what that was, but sure admired it greatly. This was about a year ago, never forgot, figured out what it was and the search for my new toy was on. The guy riding it drove in circles in an intersection and I kept going on to what I had to do, then when I came back he passed by again. I was just so impressed! I have never seen another privately owned Spyder, only seen 1 other in a showroom and the place shut down the next week so who knows where it ended up. I am hopeful to be part of a group that exists somewhere about 2 hours away and I will travel to enjoy the company!
 
CO Springs to Cripple Creek and Back

Saw a few yesterday but too busy having fun and checking my 6 to verify the wife was doing well on her F3 to recall details. We went out to Cripple Creek, CO from Colorado Springs. Didn't realize Donkey Derby Days was going on so it was an added treat.

If you saw us, you would remember. Although my plain black RT-S is forgettable, and maybe even the wife's white and black F3S, if you saw the neon pink pigtails I stuck to the side of her helmet you would remember. I really need to charge people for taking her picture. We counted at least 3 cage passengers feverishly snapping away on the road.
 
I crossed paths with a 2-up yellow RT yesterday while riding on FM78 between Marion Texas and McQueeny Texas. They were riding toward Marion and I was riding toward McQueeny.
 
3 RT's and a 2 wheeler together heading north on rte. 30 thru Fonda, NY just before noon on Fri. 6/26. Brought a tear to my eye that I wasn't with them.

Saw A White Spyder Southbound VA US-29

Over the 4th of July weekend we saw a Spyder while visiting relatives in Lynchburg, VA on Rainbow Forest Drive, we were in a cage at the time.

Heading back home on July 7th we saw a Spyder heading southbound in VA on US-29, somewhere between the DC area and Charlottesville. The ryder gave a big wave, we were easy to spot:
