We live in Cumming, GA. We have been on this since 2010 and really no one forms a ride. We have a 2009 Roadster black/gray.

Lawrencville Rider
I commute on my 2010 Quantum Blue but would be interested in taking a ride with a group. Let me know if some people are getting together. Had the RS for 3 months now.

THEY TALK THE TALK BUT THEY DON'T DO THE WALK!
Good luck in getting a group ride together. I have been trying that for a few years and nothing happens nor are they organized in group meets.

Group meets and rides
A group of Spyder riders started GA Spider Riders last September. We had a meeting in Social Circle, with small rides after it for anyone that was interested. Then we had another meeting in Augusta in October. Our next meeting was in January (or was it February) in Kennesaw. We had a group ride to SpyderFest in April.
When we started this group, the riders that partcipated wanted to be "organized, but casual." We have tried to set up meetings in different areas of the state to encourage participation. Since Yol Bolsun is the "head honcho" (and my hubby) and we knew our May to July schedule was crazy, we suggested that another member set the spring meeting. There was a suggested ride for Savannah that sounded awesome, but we never saw any firm details posted. So far, our meetings have been more "meet and eats" with the rides consisting of getting to and from the meetings. The meetings are the "organized" side. We have voted on a group logo, name, no dues, how often to meet and other business. Just this little bit of organization is very time consuming. Sometimes our members will post in the GA section that they are going somewhere and are looking for company. That goes with the casual side of this group.
The next group meeting should occur within this quarter (July-Sept). We are open to suggestions as to where and when. We need a meeting place and date and if desired, planned rides. Keith (YolBolsun) and I will try to make the meeting depending on our work schedules. If we can't be there, any business can be handled by anyone else. We usually post an agenda before the meeting. If someone else wants to take over being the "head honcho" we welcome the volunteer(s).

The meeting will be in Conyers. Still trying to lock down a date with Mtn Motorsports. I am also trying to set up a ride that will end at the monastery before going back to Mtn Motorsports for potluck and meeting. Looking for afternoon to evening as a time frame.
In September, we are planning on the WEMC Breast Cancer ride and many of our members are going to Lamont's BarBQ in Tennessee. We will discuss both of these at our meeting.
I am also looking to set up and Ladies ride (men are welcome too) in the Oct/Nov time frame. I was thinking of a ride that will end up at a tea place somewhere.

Have fun!
Had a great time on the Dragon with 5 other friends. If you have never been there try it. 319 turns in 11 miles. In watching the people & their bikes take off after a while we said why wait until the next day let's do it now. I do not know how many of you realize it but, a Spyder does one hell f a burnout. When we took off my friend was first with his Screaming Eagle I went second & the rest of the pack followed. They said when I did my burnout everyones heads snapped to see what it was. The Screaming Eagle & I finished in 12 minutes. Yes we where moving. It was a lot of fun. On the way back home the next day I took them along the Ocee river rapids on Tenn route 64 into Copperhill, TN. & then back home down 575 to 53 to GA 400. We put on about 500 miles that weekend ride. Lots of interesting friendly people there try it!

Sounds like ya'll had a great time. Just a word of caution, depending on what day it is, the Dragon is heavily patrolled by the ticket writers. We all know that it is for a reason. Many, many motorcycle accidents from people riding over their abilities, semis on the wrong side of the road, bicylists, and on and on.........

Welcome to all new GA Spyder Riders.
Sounds yummy! Might I suggest eating the potluck first. Would be difficult to keep some of the dishes fresh if we choose to ride first...

I would love to come out this weekend but I run my own restaurant and have to be there this weekend. I'm hoping to be free for the next upcoming event. I can't wait to meet other riders.
