Part 2 of my journey to Austria with the Can-Am Spyder F3S! Today is the first full day of the Großglockner challenge event - I get to visit the Rotax factory and visit several scenic checkpoints.
Unfortunately I wasn’t allowed to photograph the factory tour which was my favourite part of the day, I’ve never visited a factory like it and it was an eye opening experience. As someone with very limited technical knowledge or experience, I firmly believed that engines simply spawned into existence. It was a privilege to watch various machines take solid metal and cut and shape them into something recognisable. I can’t describe it very well so you’ll have to take my word for it, thankfully there was enough fun riding surrounding the tour to fill a video.
I’m starting to feel at home on the Spyder, I’m learning what it’ll do and how to make its quirks work to my advantage - for example, normally a rear wheel spinning out is cause for alarm, but I’m learning how to use it to get out of tight spots and impress the people around me.
I hope you enjoy my vlog from today!
