How is a Spyder like a horse?

[SpyderSue]

You can spend as much as you want on a saddle :banghead:
They need new shoes more often than should be reasonable:agree:
They like to throw you off if you ask them to take corners too fastnojoke
Can be temperamental for no apparent reason, especially the mares (a.k.a. Nanny):shemademe_smilie:

The cost of fuel is about the same:helpsmilie:

Some models are basic, some are flashy :ani29::f_spider::spyder2:
They tend to reflect the personality of their owners :firstplace::yes::dontknow::spyder:hyea:

They like to be inside when it rains (or snows)
People always ask if they can pet them, ride them, stick their kids on them:barf:

Some are small and quick, some are big and comfortable:doorag:

The more you ride, the better you get:clap:

After awhile, you become one being…ray:

A horse is much more Energy Efficient Vehicle;
It runs on Oats and Grass,
But a word of Caution!,

''Do not step in Exhaust''.:yikes:

I mount mine from the left.

Me Too!

I mount mine from the left.

Old habits die hard. I too mount mine from the left - always. I'll walk around it rather than get on from the right.

Now that would be a totally useless poll - "From which side to you mount your Spyder? Left, Right, from the back - like a vault! I'd love to see that!

I mount from either side (horses & spyder), although I always dismount horses from the opposite side from wich I mounted.

I mount from the right, too, but Nancy has to mount from the right with her replacement knee. I'm not going to try the vault...too hard on an RT! :roflblack:

Spyder won out over horse

As a lifelong lover/owner of horses....about age 65 I had to put my horse down...about 68 started the wonderful project called a bucket list...on mine I had a horse and a motorcycle/trike...I realllllly love my horses and other furry critters that own me...but when I started listing the pros and cons on horse vs. motorcycle/trike...the main decision maker was the inevitable time that comes when death enters. :sour: As strange as it sounds that is how motorcycle trike won out...if I got another horse I did not want to deal with losing another furry friend...Spyder dies!! heck call Len up and order another one with all the newest and latest hyea:....so now you know how my thought process works!!!! Scarrrrry ain't it!!! :clap:... and others own horses so I can periodically get my kickers on and get to smell all horsey and come home, pat Ms Spyder on the frunk and say yep definitely made the right choice....:yes::yes:
