Thanksgiving Contest AKA Once upon a time..

[krb1945]

I am thankful for my...

Spyder because it helps me stay young and feel like a kid again. When you've been all busted up a few times and something makes you forget about the pain and stiffness it is something to be thankful for. Our Spyders make me know that I am still alive. I sometimes scare the be-jeebers out of myself when I look down and see the tach at 9000 and the speedo at 90 when going through the gears to blow the soot out. I say to myself... you old dog you better slow this thing down before you break more old bones or worst yet, get a ticket.

Yep... I'm glad I have Spyders to keep me young at heart, mind and body.

Everyone have a "super Thanksgiving"! /Ken a greatful to be free citizen of the United States of America! Long may her flag wave proudly.

 

[Questions]

Gift from my wife.

I have actually just received my spyder this morning. My wife got it for me as a xmas/birthday present (probably for the next few yrs).. But after 4 kids and me always saying I wanted a bike I did alot of research and it all pointed to this. I can't wait to get going on it and really look forward to some great times with her on it with me. I don't think I will ever forget this Thanksgiving that is for sure and she really blew me out of the water with getting this for me since it is all I have really been talking about for the last few months. Already ordered some things for it to switch out and I'm really looking forward to getting my hands dirty and to customize it. So I wanted to thanks to the wife you are the best :2thumbs:!

You're quite a bit tougher than I am if you think that getting a ticket is worse than breaking your bones.

I can't even compete with what others have wrote, very inspiring. I've had several bikes over the last 3 years and I've loved them, I grew up wanting a bike so bad, I too have parents who think they're too dangerous. I guess they conditioned me, I just never felt totally comfortable on them. Last year when my wife and I found out we were having a daughter, I sold the bike . She kept her's and figured she'd eventually use it again, but I was too nervous to keep mine. I didn't lose the desire for the open road though. At first I was mad I sold my bike, then along came the :spyder2:.

I've had my Spyder for 5 days now, 205 miles later I love it. It's amazing! This Thanksgiving I am grateful for my family and all the the big guy upstairs has given me. I hope everyone enjoys their time with their families.

so many good stories how did you pick and who won?

We picked the one we felt best showed the sprit of thankfulness.

As this was not to make the people who were not picked feel their stories were not worthy, we will not be posting the winner here ourselves.
