As if I couldn't find another way to risk the body, I tested the CAN-AM "Spyder".

Un-freaking real. Fast nimble and best of all self balance at rest.

Oh , $15,000.00. Not bad, payed that for the Harley that now has no rider.

My wife says "NO WAY", see thinks I'm going to bust myself up more.

I say way BECAUSE I'm already busted up.

Who do you agree with ?

Be Big,
Alan

Looks like something for motorcycle riders who are too lazy to ride right...

You're gonna get fat...

I wonder how much they cost...

Or no longer can ride right.

$15000.00 or 3 Segways. I don't know about lazy but I see a generation of ageing bikers that would like the stability.

In my case I can ride my Harley, I just can't come to a stop and hold up the bike ! Not to mention that I have little planter flex, use of toes, so downshifting is also a problem.

This is not your "1970's" trike.

No falling off one of those in the halls of Congress.

And not doing stunts in front of the ladies during training sessions!

Other than that, I think you are checked out and ready to roll.

Now if we could get a Segway website to be that cool! And keep it that way.

Hard to argue that ! You see she doesn't like the Hog either.

No wheelies....

And what makes it worse is that I thought I was over all that petrolhead stuff. The Mustangs, and T'Birds are behind me, and now the bikes have gone. I guess it's a bit like alcoholic's anonymous.

Hi my names Nick and I'm a petrolhead

Interesting trike. Personally if I'm going to ride a trike, I'd rather take the t-rex because it's caged, thus a helmet is not required, but goggles and toothpick would probably be a good idea.

Both the spyder and the t-rex are rigid trikes. Now for a fully enclosed trike, that leans like a bike - I'd really like to have the Carver out of the Netherlands.
