                                                  New Motorcycle




Hello, I took a hiatus, but I'm back.  There just wasn't any riding since my last post.  We got a fair amount of snow during the winter and a lot of extremely cold days.  Too cold to want to get out and ride, brrrr.  It's finally warming up a bit to get out now and then.

So at the end January of this year I took the plunge and got a new motorcycle.  I rode just over 8 years on my V-Star 650 custom and had a lot of fun times, but I wanted to finally upgrade.  Being short, that limited me a lot.  I had been admiring another rider's trike in my motorcycle group.  After doing much research I discovered that the Can-Am Spyder's are a bit cheaper and more stable than a trike.  I also think they are so cool to look at.  My husband was so supportive of this decision and we went out shopping for a used one.  After looking and drooling over the new models on the showroom floor, we broke down and I got a new 2013 Can-Am RT Limited Spyder.  I got a little bit of a deal, as they wanted to make room for the new 2014's coming out.  So here we are in mid April and I already have 1,071 miles on the spyder.  I am just loving my new choice!!!  Now I need to update the header of my blog to the adventures of riding a spyder, lol.  I already have a few things to share in future posts.  

With spring around the corner, I know many of us are gearing up to ride.

Wishing you wonderful adventures in your part of the world,

Biker Betty

Quite a few sport-type regimens have their suitable preventive gear and as well equipment. Motorcycling is not any exception. Each rider and as well passenger have to wear over-the-ankle boots or shoes, long trousers, a long-sleeved, jacket, full-fingered motorbike gloves, as well as a helmet meant to conform to help DOT (U. Azines. Department about Transportation) technical specs. Helmets accomplish. Helmet effectiveness has long been confirmed through scientific scientific studies, while scalp protection misguided beliefs – “helmets bust necks, obstruct vision and as well impair hearing” – were consistently disproved. Safety-conscious bikers use helmets to be a sensible, responsible choice each and every time they vacation; we know you might, too.
