My ride lasted six days and I did 1900 kms on the Spyder. It finished on 1st March 2010 with no incidents or damage to the vehicle. A comprehensive review of the machine will be coming up soon along with a couple of magazine articles on the horizon. I suggest you subscribe to the RSS feed of this website to enable you to be informed when these updates come out.

You may also wish to follow me on my new personal website at motoGrapher.com and keep yourself updated of my photography and new travels. Who knows I might be in your neck of the woods sometime in the future!

So here goes, the best of the Spyder ride in pictures:

I landed at the Coolangatta airport (Gold Coast) and Todd Webster from Spyder Ryder was already there to pick me up. After a drive of 15 odd minutes I was staring in awe at a garage which had not one, but TWO Spyders restuing like a giant creature waiting to be woken from sleep. My first reaction was, woah, this →
