I can't believe it is November - My temp gauge was reading 66 degrees! Was nice to get out again. Rode today w/ no problems so I'm hoping this DPS is the fix! I was nervous for a while at first but everything was fine on my :spyder:. Very good turnout at the diner - was nice to meet more Spyderlovers that I've posted w/ on here!:2thumbs: Everyone's Spyder was different and there was alot of cool stuff to look at, I finally got to see a T Rex in person! How cool was that!

Still agonizing over pie. Now his daughter is a smart cookie - she will be flying helicopters some day!:2thumbs:

I'm about to winterize my Spyder. But will still take it out if there is no snow on the roads and temps are resonable during the winter. I'm a bit of a weenie with no heated gear.

More than likely the next get together will be in the spring.

Nice pics Smylinacha. Was nice to meet all of the CT gang and the other :spyder: owners there.

And you should have seen the smile on Taylors face when I did the burnout leaving:yikes::ohyea:. I don't think she stopped until I got back to the Thruway (nice sweeping turns on RT22 :2thumbs:).

Burg650 ( Roger ) made it home just fine, day was still great so I parked the Spyder and jumped into my SSR with top down and went for a cruise. It was great to have met so many of you and I think it was a nice turn out seeing some great looking Spyders with cool mods especially the NMN Magicman machines they are a class act outfit. Look forward to catching up with you all and many many more Spyders riders in the future.

Wizardmaster, can you pm me the link to the Prowler so I can check out that run.

Smylinacha, Great pictures and I'm really happy you had excellent day, a good ride and a great time w/all the other Spyder Ryders in the area.

Talking w/my brother he said it was a beautiful day at 64 in Farmington. He has his daughter's Sportster 833, that she hasn't ridden in a few years and couldn't think of anything better to do and went for a long ride himself.

Here at the beach it started out cloudy but, by 11 am the sun was shinning and my temp gauge said 69. I went for a ride taking Tami with me and found there's nothing worse than a back seat driver. I kept hearing TE! (nickname) your going to fast. The speed limit here is 35 and you doing close to 50. I told her, if I was going 35 those rented 50cc scooter's would be passing me and I can't have that! :D

Its supposed to go into the 70s here this week and I'll see if I can send you, HDX and all the :spyder2: Ryders in the NE some of this fine riding weather, to Y'all.

Here are some pics that I have from the ride on Sunday. It sure was a nice day for this meet and greet at the Hillsdale diner! It's nice to see people from different regions gather to make new friendships, or just reunite with friends that they haven't seen in a while. Again, Smylinacha! Thank You for getting this gathering together. It was good to see you, HDX, Roaddog and Jeuchler again! Nice meeting you guys as well rnet and burg650.

Wizardmaster's T-Rex was cool!
