Official SpyderFest 2012 Updates Post!

[Yazz]

Congrats to BRP for bringing their Demo Van to Spyderfest! You're going to enjoy Cuba's slice of Spyder heaven.

The Mo Gang is outdoing their selves once again. Thank Y'all for giving your time to make this happen.

Just ordered a shirt. Plan on wearing it the last day on the road as I cruise into Cowtown.

Great design on the shirts.
Lady Macca and I have ours ordered

[SteveMac]

I don't think people realize what a BIG deal this is. We tried to get BRP to bring out the demo truck last year and it was a no go. Part of the problem is it cost a lot to bring that out to an event where pretty much everyone there already owns a Spyder. I hope this pays off for them and we'll have some new SpyderLovers at the end of the event.

Great job guys

Lamont, you are right on the money.

This is just HUGE news. What this does is really take the event to a new level. Obviously, SpyderFest is an event "for SpyderLovers by SpyderLovers" but having the BRP Demo Van there really broadens that. I hope all of our SpyderLovers family here will really put out the word to any of their friends who are even remotely interested in owning a Spyder. I cannot possibly imagine a better scenario for the person who is in "shopping mode". Remember, all trikes, two wheelers, etc are welcome. This is an open event! So those owners should feel welcome to attend.

Just think of it:

• We will have all of the wonderful folks from SpyderLovers there.
• There will be great rides that everyone will enjoy.
• Tons of food.
• We will have LOTS of great vendors there with Spyder specific products and exhibits.
• And...We will now have the BRP Demo Van!

We were talking about this very thing today at Cowtown. We hope that all of our friends here will really spread the word, especially outside of our SpyderLovers world. Get the word out to anyone even remotely interested in owning a Spyder! This could bring new owners into the Spyder world, new members here to SpyderLovers.com and more fun to SpyderFest!!

It is just such a winning combo!

Steve,
are there any plans to offer long sleeve, or white
for color and sleeve lengths...?

I don't think so, at least not in this particular shirt, but the Official Event shirt that you will get with registration is white I do believe.

You can bet I will, when we did our fall Valkyrie ride in Oct a lot of them was interested in Spyders and were talking about coming to Spyderfest. There is not a week goes by without someone asking about the Spyder at work.

Sorry John!
I may get fired if I mess up again!

[murphybrown]

My understanding is that you can't fire a volunteer...so sorry!!! AND besides what would Spyderfest do without you to blame for all the oopses!!!!!

Got it Mark. Looking forward to seeing you in April!

Well, while it is true every event, work project, etc., needs a scapegoat if something blows up, my understanding was that his "volunteerism" was forthcoming after extreme arm twisting and sheer duress.

Having said that Mr. Mac is an overachiever.

You're doing an outstanding job Mr. Mac.

[SteveMac]

It is true Mark. And waterboarding may have been involved.


Let me tell you though the entire MoGang are overachieving this SpyderFest!

We are having a planning meeting this weekend and so we should have some new Vendor news, Event news, and more news! Bumblebee and G-Man are working hard on the vendors, and we will have updates on registration, the rides from Mo Lee, games and any other info that we can get to you all! And rumor has it that the bonfire this year may be seen from the Space Station!

This is really going to be a great event!!
Can't wait to see hundreds of Spyders cruising all around the Ozarks and Cuba!

Most definitely not my intent to in anyway diminish or negate the dedication, hard work and contribution of ANY member of the MoGang. We all know an event of this magnitude and excellence. It's just that Mr. Mac is more out front, more accessible and an easier target.

[TicketBait]

Obviously, everyone who registers for SpyderFest 2012 is going to receive the official event shirt included in the cost of your registration.
(And don't forget those meals too...)

However,,,
The MoGang SpyderFest Planning Committee has received several emails from members here on SpyderLovers and from others planning to attend SpyderFest, asking if we would have another shirt option (in addition to the official shirt) available this year.

We had the additional shirts last year and it was a big success, but the problem was that you couldn't get the shirt until SpyderFest actually kicked off....



Well,,,Good news!

The answer is Yes! We will be offering an additional shirt. And early!

The "SpyderFest or Bust" Shirt!

In addition, we will be putting this shirt on www.spyderfest.com later this evening in hopes that you might want to pick one up early and wear it on your ride into SpyderFest, showing your brotherhood with other SpyderLovers from all over the USA!

The shirt concept is shown below and will be available in Black, short or long sleeves. Check out www.spyderfest.com for more details on pricing and ordering! Len will be shipping these out from Cowtown to you as they are ordered, so you will have them in plenty of time for your ride to Spyderfest, and maybe even to wear around a couple of months before the event!

I have a sneaky suspicion that our webmaster Lamonster will be receiving one of these early on, and maybe he will model it for us if we put some peer pressure on him. I warn you it is not waterproof though!

The logo has a retro-look and is pretty cool. Large logo is on the back, with a smaller SpyderFest 2012 logo on the front left.

See below!

Just saw this and ordered a long sleeve , when will they ship out so we can start wearing them? And as a suggestion I think you should make a separate thread announcing that you have this shirt available (pre spyderfest) at your website or in your first post, cuz many might miss it. Again I am soo exxcited

Little doubt I am the "biggest" target. LOL!

Excellent!

Len and Sierra at Cowtown have everything in process and the orders (and there are quite a few!) should be rolling out early next week! I can't wait to get mine too!
