Although we expect to have some rain,I do hope it's less than more as we all know Spyders aren't the best in the rain,but we do plan on having a GREAT time at the fest!!

They actually do a pretty darn good job in it... :thumbup:
For a light rain (A bit more than a sprinkle...), you don't even need your raingear... the design of the bodywork shovels the weather around you. :ohyea:
The big issue might be hydroplaning... so slow down a bit! :D

I hate to admit it, but that is the biggest reason we don't make Spyderfest as although we live in Oregon where we get 42 inches of rain a year where we live I'm not a fan of spending days of riding in it. I wish it was held later in the year and I bet there would even be more attendees. We make many long distance rides all year long and one or two straight days ain't bad but day after day in the Spring time, not fun anymore.

Our weather says it is going to be 41 degrees with 50% rain when we leave on Tues. 55 for the high. Going to need the long handle underware.

The weather sounds great! Now I may be able to try out my rain gear, test my new windshield and have an extra story to add to my tale!
