ATTN ATTN ATTN!!!!!!!! :doorag:NY/NJ/CT/PA/DEL/VT/MA:doorag: AND ALL WELCOME AND WILLING TO TRAVEL. :yes:O.K. those that graciously participated in our successful Timesquare :chat:meet back in october, the time has come again. This year we would like all participants to plan ahead so no one misses out like last time. I'm currently shooting for Saturday September 3, with a Sunday September 4th raindate. I figure we can have a meet/greet :popcorn:lunch at a central location (to be group decided)and chat it up before heading to the heart of timesquare by Mtv studios for pics and autographs. (spyder owners are considered stars in timesquare). The run was great last year and we had about 8 spyders show up. 1 year later and I think we can definately get at least 20 spyders on board. IF ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS FOR THIS YEARS EVENT IM ALL EARS. YOU CAN REACH ME AT 631-662-8822 CALL OR TEXT IS FINE. Last year we met in brooklyn and then caravaned to timesquare. Cant wait. :2thumbs:

I hope you have more luck with gathering other ryders than us for your ride. We have been trying to get at least a few other ryders to join us on a 90 mile memorial run this weekend August 1. I have posted the event on spydernewengland, lovers and talk and have had two answers. Everybody is so busy. We would love to do the ts ride but wont know until a few weeks ahead of time. Good luck!:chat:

OK guys, looks like todays plans was a bust, my bike went into limp mode and only 3 of nine spyders actually showed up. I figure it was because of the holiday weekend that people are probably so busy. Anyway those who showed up and those that called and communicated whether they were coming or not I thank you and hope we can set a better date next time.

What time did you come, there were two of us there till about noon, then we left as no one else was showing up. We also found out that Outback's doesnt open until 1PM not 11AM. Sorry, we are all pretty annoyed it didnt work out.

nyfdtsdemt
09-09-2009, 09:34 PM
weel they said out back would be open so i didnt rush down there! so i figured about 1215 or so id still be ok. I am very upset because i work a full time job and alomost 40hrs at my part time job and i dont really get alot of ride time nor time with my g/f and i feel like i wasted a whole day at the end of summer in which i could have done something else!:gaah:
