Enjoy your video s. Thanks for sharing
The next year and a half cant come quickly enough.... running out of videos to watch about the Spyder- while saving for one!
"The good news is, we aren't hot!" Now that's a great Outlook for dealing with riding in the rain Miriam. We really enjoyed meeting you both and all the others over the weekend. Thank you for making us newbie Spyder riders feel welcome and part of the group. Big Meadows Lodge was a very interesting place and we enjoyed both the history and magnificent views. We look forward to the next adventure, and a time we can again enjoy some wind therapy together! Frank and Nancy - 2021 Spyder RTL
We enjoyed meeting both of you, Frank! Looking forward to the next adventure.
Hi John and Miriam. So enjoyed our time together. We made it to the 3 wheel rally in Deadwood SD and having a great time. Had a great buffalo encounter tonight in CusterState Park. Mt Rushmore tomorrow. Miriam you only a month away. Yea!!!!
That is just so very awesome, Ray! So glad you and Linda are having a good time.
Looks like a fun time and at least the weather cooperated in the end.
Love your videos a lot.. inspirational and fun!...wish you safe ride and more happy moments! Life is wonderful but short! ENJOY IT! CHEERS!
Hah !!! Baptized 😁😆🤣
Now that's funny, hope your riding friends enjoyed their "baptism". Another lesson learned, when riding through a manned kiosk parkway entry, make sure you ride through in front of John or you may have to maneuver out from under a bus, haha.
Another very enjoyable video 👍👍
😂😂😂
Looks like fun when I retire, Thanks for the Tube
Arizona says hello
My front trunk fills with water!
Oh no!
The design and the gasket should stop that!
Hi Charles, check to make sure the gasket around the lid is not pinched or even possibly torn. I had the same issue with the trunk on my Harley and found the smallest tear in it, not enough to catch my eye but just enough to allow water to leak in during several hours of riding in a down pour. Once it was replaced, it took care of the leak and it's been nice and dry ever since.
@@JohnMiriamsTravelVlog It doesn't. Mine gets wet too.
Ha i really enjoyed this video. Think I might have to make another dream happen.
Looks like a great time.
Awesome video. Me and my amazing wife are just just getting into spyder. I’m taking the course right now and we have rented a spyder f3 limited for our upcoming vacation. Can’t wait to to get out of the house and to go exploring.
Happy road trails!
Great vid. At least when I get my Spyder, rain will be one less worry of falling down. LOL
Just to let you know,,, when we learn you got it,, we will do the "happy dance" you,,
The destination was well worth enduring the rain. Great video John and Miriam.
Well I'm glad that the rain stopped and you got to enjoy some sunshine! I remember being afraid my first ride in the rain but then I realized it wasn't so bad! Have a great day! 👍😊🏍️💜
And I really luv havin' that 3rd tire on the road when it's raining 😁👍
@@SpyderWayne me too!!
Thanks for the video! I am researching can-am because thinking buying a used one!
Of the 4000 miles on our Spyder, I think 2000 are in the rain including one tropical storm. I already have next year's meetup in my calendar. Hope to meet you two next year!
We just bought a 23 Can Am did one long ride so far. Got our rain suits haven't had to use them yet. We have the RT Limited Sea to Sky model. We are in NC.
Fixing to get one tomorrow….. I’ve riden motorcycles for a long time. We we’re going to look can am side by sides and my wife saw one of these and that’s the story
Great vlog guys. From Australia 🙏💚😀
Greetings to the land down under! and thank you
Another good video,I remember getting caught in a rain storm from Ga to Orlando bringing my RTL from long Island Ny to Florida took it in stride and my first gear rain suit kept me dry all the way.
Very nice ride. I call our pass the "Old man's pass" too. We bought ours when they were $10! Really a huge savings out west where some parks are $35 for a motorcycle. Happy to see you are not "whiny" riders afraid of rain or cold. I sometimes feel I'm baby sitting with all the complaints about weather, gas stop brand, eating, riding too far/not far enough between stops, too fast/too slow. It is harder than most people realize to plan and lead a ride. Gotta have tough skin and no feelings! Ride on!
Got to go with the flow! :}
Things get wet. DUA!
Hey John and Miriam, i whatch your videos some times... i like your stuff... make more videos .. engage :-) greetings from a german spyder f3 s driver "spyder now"
I’m so glad I only hit about 20 minutes of rain on entire trip
Wow…how lucky
@@miriambryant1896 yes and the 20 I had was very welcome.
Glad we could make the meetup this year. We too rode down from PA thru the rain on the first day, but the rest of the weekend was near perfect... sunny and warm... wish we could've stayed longer. The trip to Big Meadows represents the longest trip we have ridden to date. Except for arriving late (GPS got us lost), it was a great ride. We loved the area and twisty roads. As mentioned below, we too really enjoyed meeting you both and all the others over the weekend. I hope we can do this again soon. :-)
Thank you guyes, we find the people we meet make the trip!!
“Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass: it’s about learning how to ride in the rain!”
Interesting, when I recently rode back from the Adirondacks I got hit by some rain (perhaps not as heavy as your’s). I was only wearing the jacket of my rain suit. However, I noticed my pants were not wet. Apparently the front and the windshield and the wings shielded the lower part of my body from the moisture. It was a nice surprise. My ride is the RT limited, 2021.
Not a fan of lightening either but, if you need to get back to the future it may change your perspective.
Great video, only thing I found wrong with it is that it makes me sad that I am not there with you on some of those amazing trips. My wife and I are really enjoying our time on our rt limited, when I can get off from work. (insane amount of overtime) Rain kind of holds us back because my wife doesn't want to get wet. But rain doesn't really slow that spyder down from going where we want to go, so onward til dark, or whatever. Thanks for the videos, it gives me something to enjoy when I am not out there on mine.
Only the phone was not dressed for rain? I would suggest a Lifeproof case. It is waterproof (the FRE model), rugged, and works just fine with the Ram mount on my BWM during my commutes (up to 80 ish MPH depending on traffic and the road I choose).
Thanks for trying review. I feel much better about riding in the rain…. It’s not so bad…
Enjoy
When ever you buy a motorcycle be it 2 wheeled or 3 wheeler like the Spyder.You have to put it to heart and thought..."The weather be it rain,sleeth or worse snow.I take em ON head on.Ride on Spyder!"
Carry a set of Frogg Toggs for rain!
Great video, so do both of you have Canam rain gear, my wife and I need to get some?
What happens when it rains on a Can-Am spider, you get wet lol
What you guys need is Aerostich full body gear.
So much gear, so little time
Just a note always lights on when raining
Our Spyder headlights stay on. I do crank up the Fog lights in rain.
John, yes you get wet. Miriam, yes liked you peed in your pants. LOL! Love the ride anyway. It was great meeting you guys. Hope to meet up again. Stay safe.
How are you talking so clearly? Is it over the phone, or a headset, or ? Thank you.
The Sena Prism Tube video camera has a mic that I have mounted in the helmet chin guard.
FROGG TOGGS
with your riding style, how many miles per gallon ?
It changes with the configuration. The last time I checked I was getting 35. Heading out with Miriam and the trailer for a few days and will do an update.
It is too bad yur system won’t allow banter between you as well
Miriam has requested we look at new intercom systems
@@JohnMiriamsTravelVlog We just purchased and installed the Cardo PACTALK Bold system. I haven't "field tested" it but the conversation we just had with Nancy in our living room and me in the kitchen was nice and clear LOL....more details to follow as soon as we get out for a ride later today.
Carry Frogg Toggs!
i live in the harpers ferry area and just bought my 21 F3 Ltd... Been looking for other Spyder owners! Apparently none live in West Virginia. Where are you guys from?
Down here in Virginia Beach
Where you riding out from
Sunny (sometimes) Virginia Beach, VA
Just wondering about the weight capacity. Do yall have the stock shock or did yall upgrade?
John says we have the stock shock. He also believes if you can fit on the spyder, it will take the weight.
Ok. Thank u for the info
Too many ads. Even for a YT vid.
I don't set that up, its done by TH-cam. Sorry
