Look for Baker Built at Spyderfest this year. Looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and learning some new ones as well. Come check us out and say hello. Looking forward to this awesome event.

[Don in E Texas]

This may be the year of a new Spyder😃 for me!

... new 3 cyl engine - 6 speed transmission --- etc. What's not to love on any models from 2014 up?

Good luck and Happy Riding.

Why not post a schedule from LAST year so all the new folks coming to Spyderfest will have a GENERAL idea of what to expect? Maybe one is already here on the Forum someplace?

[RedRTS]

One right HERE that has already voiced that exact sentiment. And a proposed vendor list might b nice as well.

It might actually help attendance. Especially from those that have never been.

OK so let me in short give a little bit of a schedule & vendors list -- you can't hold me to any of this!!!!!

Wednesday -- Registration Opens
Vendor Village Opens 9-6 (?)
Opening night with games and food

Thursday Registration Continues
Vendor Village Open 9-6 (?)
Group Rydes -- usually groups leave out every 15-20 minutes from the Fairgrounds -- destinations not yet decided. The groups rydes all go the same place on that day. (Different rydes each day.) Does that make sense??

Friday Vendor Village Open 9-6 (?)
Group Rydes -- Same as above only a different location.
Pie Run (we raise money Len has to wear something to lead the pie run)

Saturday ?????
Closing ceremonies and prizes given out.

I think the most important part of SpyderFest is meeting people from around the world and making friends for life. I don't think there is a stranger in this group. If you are planning to come for the first time, I hope you aren't afraid of hugs!!!

This year so far, Australia, Canada, United Kingdom and leader from outside the US is Mexico!!! (I think 12-14 registered.)

For all of the "repeat offenders" Mike & Trini will be back in from Australia (this will be #3 for Moikey and #2 for Trini, although I think they will be minus Pete, so Len won't have him as a target to throw tennis balls at during the games. UK Geoff will be joining us, #3 for him.

Vendors -- to my vendors, please add yourself in the comments if I leave you off, then I will go back and edit and add you. I am doing this by memory, and sometimes that gets impaired (For those of you who know me no ruining my bad reputation!!! Especially you Bob Denman!!! LOL) Sorry there isn't one with a wine glass!!!

I hope this helps answer some of the "newbies" questions. Some of the vendors have regular a web pages and others facebook, some both. I encourage you to google them and take a look at what they have to offer.

I do not know who schedules in advance for their work. TricLed & Sue Hopper both do, I know. TricLed's phone number is on their web page, and Sue you can contact her through Facebook.

Will update as needed, please check back after February 12, our meeting is the 11th, so I am sure we can post some more after that.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Love to all see you in April!!!

For the "newbies" and for some of the "repeat offenders" that may not know.

No one from MoGang is employed by PitBull Powersports, we don't get paid for what we do. We do it because we want to, we all share a love of the spyder and the bond is totally unbelievable. The spyder community is my 2nd family. (In fact at times I see more of them than I do my own family.)

Almost a year ago our ever so on time leader, Len told me "I would fight a bear with a toothpick to protect any of you." We all feel that way, the bond is wonderful.

PS
The "on-time" comment -- nothing ever starts on time. Len is always fashionably late!!!

[Bob Denman]

Nothing may start on time, but it's always worth the wait!

[Tango]

Hi Joanie. Tom+Ali from PA. registered and ready to go. You mentioned, "new dealership". Did Pitbull move? If so, where? And as far as an outfit for Len. Ballerina, with pink tights is my choice. Keep up the good work. MOGANG is very appreciated. Tom

[QUOTE=Joanie;1219625]Things have been pretty crazy in the Mid-West, weather wise.

Second Saturday of the month, starting in January, is when we start the plans for SpyderFest. Well guess what we had an ice storm that weekend and unfortunately had to cancel the meeting. Then this week the world welcomed our newest member, Caroline Damouth!!! (Looks like Colton & Charli.)

Just a quick statement and question about you above notes above.

Since you missed a planning meeting, and so many are looking forward to this maybe there is salvation. Hey, I have never been to this thing, Springfield, yes but not Spyderfest nor any MC rally of any kind. My excitement level is requiring a lot of restraint.

If all of you get together two or three times per month, as opposed to only the second Saturday, would it not happen faster?

Just saying!

Joe

[Bob Denman]

Joe,
When you suggest something like that; we all have to assume that you're willing to volunteer to help organize the event also...

Joanie....
A HUGE Thanks from a newbie.... we are registered and Excited to be there for the first time.... thanks especially for the Vendor list.... if we were wanting a vendor to do an install and didn't want to miss the rides, what is best time of day to pre-schedule that with the vendor (approximately).
Appreciate your efforts.

Bumping this very informative thread back to the top of the list, I'm looking forward to perusing all these great vendor product selections in person.

[Joanie]

Thank you everyone for your comments. March 11 is our next meeting. Hopefully I can post more then. (Hopefully I will know something more to post!!!)

We love this show and will have all of our windshields for the F3 and RT ready for install. Kim is excited since she now has a RT and wants to add all kinds of goodies. "Oh Boy"
