    I would hope that race doesn't matter among the Spyderlovers...What we have in common is our ride...Race shouldn't be an issue.

I really wish we could all get along but there are those that want no part of it which is a shame. Jackson and Sharpton for example and they gather more. Glad you had a good time with some cool folks.
    It's starting to seem like Spyder Riders are a different breed. We enjoy the ride and do not care about skin color.

    We hosted the Roundup here in Columbia,Mo a few years ago. Lots of VERY nice people. Yes there were a few that probably were a bit naughty and they were put in a separate place and roped off, per Round up officials. The bikes were outsanding and they loved to show them off. Harley brought in their trailer and had demos. That's where I tried a Harley trike and realized I didn't want one. We almost tipped over going around a corner. The community thought they would come out to the shops and restaurants but they bar b qed on site and visited Sams and Wal Mart. I would love to see them back.

    PS The community was scared to have them come and were also scared to have the state HOG rally a few weeks later. Bikers have a bad reputation - it doesn't matter color they are.

    I though that was nearly a thing of the past. Don't you remember the Honda commercial. "you meet the nicest people on a Honda" or something like that. Now maybe it's a Spyder!.
    Do things like your life depends on it. It COULD!

    My committee to the Myrtle beach event, there are good and bad in every race of people.

    I agree Tim.

    This is all so tiring and boring. Let's move on to stuff that is more relevant and Spyder oriented.

    No probably not a yellow or red club out there but there are some white clubs. Sorry to tell ya but they exist. Probably some all black club out there as well(and that's dumb too). Hopefully there is no such group with the Spyder Community. That being said there are some clubs that myself being African American would not be allowed to join or wouldn't want to join. Boring topic for some but real life for others. It's all about the attitude..

    Starting a club ... BOS... Brothers on Spyders... where anyone can join.. male/female ... white black or any other race or nationality or alien origin. Who's in?

    wait i was only kidding about starting a club.

    Maybe. Blue Knights are Law Enforement related. Red Knights are Fire service. Green Knights are service related.
    I am more concerened about the type of rider you are, then who you are. Booze after the ride, maybe. Booze during the ride, NO.
    Ride safe and have fun.

    There are more than a few "Blazing Saddles" references that I'd love to throw in here about now; but I don't dare...

    DaDrkmysta,
    Fire up a new club! I'd sure as heck ride with you!

    It would be politicaly incorrect to have a "White" Motorcycle club.

    And the point was that i was welcomed by everyone at a "Black" motorcycle meet, even though I was not Black.

    I actually love the topic. All of the responses I have read have been very inspirational for me.

    When I'm in Daytona I like to hangout at the Hess gas station at night to checkout all the cool bikes there, mostly sportbikes and 95% of them are people of color. Most of them if you saw them on the street without their bikes you would cross the road to avoid them. That being said I've never been treated with anything other than respect because I show them the same respect. I love the amount of time, money and creativity these guys and gals put in their bike. The color thing is obvious at first but the love of the sport is was unites us all.

    I could not even imagine the amount of time and money it took to create this master piece.

    When I clicked on this link I thought it was going to be a bunch of guys/gals with different black Spyders showing off their bikes.

    Default Looking to Ryde... that's all

    All in All... more than anything I would just like to have a group of people to Ryde with. Currently I just ride with a friend of mines. We're always looking to expand the group (can you call two people a group?) We see people on Spyders all the time but I guess two black men on Spyders can be somewhat menacing as there's never a long conversation. The Indiana Chapter of Spyder Lovers has to be organizing something ... they have to be... that's the only way we'll get to meet other ryders and maybe create the offical spyder club... where race, age or sex doesn't matter... we're all on 3 and trying to have a great Ryde.

    @ BobDenman... it would be a pleasure to ryde with you sir.. if i ever make it to NY on Spyder or any other vehicle, we'll do lunch or something..
