What it is like for me here in Mexico on my Spyder

[beadaholic]

This is pretty much a normal day for me, I have alot of things to battle! haha, but it is just par for the course. :yikes:

 

[beadaholic]

Not sure this works, don't know how to do it! yikes!

Can,t open it But I,m guessing it,s very hot there

:shocked: Wow! I guess that "The Thrill of The Open Road" must seem like a myth to you... :shocked:
I think that I caught a case of claustrophobia just from WATCHING it! :yikes:

Yes it is pretty hot, but along with people, cars that drive nuts, cows, horses, donkeys, among other things it is a fun battle out there. haha, going now, being it is 6pm now, the heat has come down a bit....whew...

think I fixed the video now!

 

[Ex Winger]

Just watched it What a busy place.Went there last Xmas on for vacation Sorry but never again.Way to hot.I guess it,s what you get use to

 

[loisk]

thanks, I enjoyed watching it.Glad we're not the only ones with potholes on main roads, big enough to swallow a cow, let alone a spyder. Don't suppose you've run into my cousin Wayne/Ken ? Cheers from Oz

No more problems but I did notice something today, just got back, when I was going out of my gate here, it is on a incline, not real huge but not so small either. Well with the parking brake on, the Spyder moved a tad down the hill, I watched it, and was ready to jump on it if needed, I had thought I had seen this before, usually one of the guys opens the gate for me haha, but when it is Sunday it is just me all by myself, and I keep the thing locked, I don't need some strangers up here with me all by my lonesome.....is this normal, it seems it is not real super duper strong? Or what is the word for that, like my bike only has 2000 miles on it, so it is basically brand new, can it be I need brakes? I do not ride them either, at first I did a little bit, but I learned very fast not to do that! Thank to all of you guys! Thanks!

Probably just need to adjust the parking break.

I've been to places like that, but thanks for the reminder. Next time I'm complaining about a first-world problem, I'll think about this.

 

[OJ UK]

Thank you so much for the tour!
I have an English friend married to a Mexican lady who recently moved
from Cuernavaca to Playa del Carmen (I think that's the place...by the ocean!)

PARKING BRAKE

Bill is correct , you may need a slight adjustment in the parking brake and I know this poses a problem for you.....personally I can't assist in how you do this.......I did read on Spyderlovers awhile back it was explained but I can't remember the thread ( sorry ).....I would POST this specific Question......someone will chime in,....maybe there is a video ?????......Mike :thumbup:..............PS............How's the Pooch ?????

Thanks for sharing, great video. My only speed bumps are geese, ducks, rabbits, and an occasional cat. don't think I could stand that slow traffic.
