why ride a spyder

[rtga]

sometimes when I pull up into a parking lot full of bikes, folks look at the spyder and ask why ride that thing. I get off the spyder, open the frunk and retrieve my foldable cane. I look them in the eye and and say, because I still like to ride. when you can't handle a 2 wheeler like you used to, you will have to decide if you want to sit on the porch or run with the pack.

That's very similar to how I respond, except I don't have the cane.

Right on Pam, I also tell them, Their time is coming when that choice will have to be made. Me, I want the wind in my face as long as possible.

[bronzeflex42]

I agree with you all. I'm in my mid 40's and i like the style and the 3 wheels. I have rode the two wheels for a while and just decided to go to 3 and love it. I never really paid much attention to the 3 wheeled motorcycle until i saw the RT and i was hooked by the style and the look of the Spyder!! hyea:

Non comformist...

I tell them that I don't get much out of two wheels anymore. Done the off road, trails, street and sport and a bit of racing. If they had had these machines when I started I would have never gone to two wheels. :yikes: what can I say ... They are that challenging and fun.hyea:hyea:don't knock them till you have really tried them, I mean really tried them and not around the block.....

 

[cuznjohn]

i just say i have bad feet, and i am old and fat. it keeps them quiet

 

[ARtraveler]

I also say, "Why Not?" and sometimes add because I like it a lot. They sometimes see me pull out the folding cane when I head into wherever. :yes:

 

[Bob Denman]

:agree: "Y" Not??

 

[unclegeezer]

Why

Why ? Because it feels good and it is the right thing for ME!

 

[DC1]

Depends......

Depends who asks and the way they ask.. If it is a genuine question or someone just being smart.....My answer can range from a honest answer about my back issues and not being able to hold up a 2 wheeler 2 up with gear anymore..... To something a lot simpler and a lot less sociable.:thumbup:
