2 Roadsters

I bought the Mini roadster 2 weeks ago and love it. I also have a Can Am Spyder which is considered a roadster (not really a motorcycle) although I don't really know why. So now my Spyder has a sister. Funny thing is that they both about the same size. The mini is about a foot longer but just about the same width. Now every morning I have to make a very difficult decision as to which one to take to work. Life is tough, but someone has to do it. So far the Mini has been winning.

Love it.

I'm a Harley rider, and the Spyder is one of the very few motorcycle-like vehicles that I would *love* to have. Those things look awesome.

The Spyder is awesome. It rides like a quad instead of a motorcycle. It takes about 10 minutes to get used to it. BRP does have some free test rides from time to time. They take about 15 - 20 minutes on the local roads. Great way to try one. http://en-us.spyder.brp.com/home.aspx

I saw my first roadster on the highway a few days ago. While I'm not the biggest fan of the coupe, I think the roadster is the best way to do a convertible MINI. They look tremendous cruising down the road top down and spoiler up! Enjoy motoring in yours!
