This is one of the hardest post I've ever made here. I knew I was in bad shape but I didn't know how bad. I haven't been able to be very active here for a long time and the moderators and the admin have been doing all the work I use to do when I started the board back in 2007. This was the first Spyder only message board. The only other board was a sub-board of Doo-Talk. The group grew very fast and soon after we were meeting each other at rallies and owners events. The Spyder took off and we all were there to be a part of it. I remember my Goldwing group saying the Spyder was nothing more than a bar hopper and you couldn't put any real miles on them like they did on their Wings. My first trip to Sturgis I rode 1050 miles in one shot. I made sure that setup right this trike was much more than a bar hopper. It earned some respect then.

I have plenty of great stories about my journey with Can-Am and the Spyder but those will be posted on my new Blog page "Lamonster Tales". I want to tell my story to the world while I'm still here. Having major health issues has made me realize that my time here is very limited and I don't want to leave my wife with the burden of leaving this site to her. AnthonyG has agreed to keep running it pretty much the way it is but he is now in full control of what he does with it.

Thanks for starting the board, I've learned much from it. I wish you all of the best.

Thanks for all you've done for the board and Spyders in general! All the best to you and your family. (Lurking & learning things from) this board was the deciding factor for me to finally pull the trigger and get my Spyder I've been wanting to get since the day CanAm first announced Spyders back in the day...

You've helped a lot of people in a lot of ways over a great many years. No one does it like you do.

It is encouraging to know that this forum is in good hands. It always has been.
