In April of 2021, I purchased my Spyder and new adventures began. Coming from a traditional two wheel motorcycle after nearly 30 years riding, medical reasons forced me to make changes if I wanted to continue to ride. I took my spyder on the curvy back-roads of Kentucky, expecting it to handle much like my motorcycle. Not even close! After scaring myself several times it became time to re-evaluate this new 3 wheel adventure. I spent many days out on those curvy roads, learning new skills. I tell you this because, riding a spyder is a whole new adventure. Do I miss my motorcycle, no, I still have it and will ride it occasionally, but I can say I love my spyder so much more. Once I was comfortable on the spyder, I started looking in other groups for folks to ride with. Where I met Ron Gordon and Karen Ebert, I set up the group and they joined in. However, Covid-19 was still restricting us from having meetings in 2021, we were strictly an online group. Eventually, restrictions were lifted and the planning and meetings were able to take place. It was a slow start but with lots of interest, we have what is now the “Bluegrass Spyder Ryders”. However, 2022 came with many plans and a bright future. Creating plans for the group, adding Ride Captains and planning future routes, I can truly say we had so much fun on our rides. The camaraderie this group has with each other is absolutely amazing. We have folks from 100 miles away, people from all walks of life, including the medical field, teachers, retired veterans, mechanics and it’s just absolutely wonderful to see everyone come together and enjoy the “Bluegrass Spyder Ryders” group. We look forward to a new year of riding and we have some overnight trips along with attending a few rally’s planned for this 2023 riding season. I hope you will join us!
