Do any St. Louis area Spyder ryders ever venture over to the Grafton Illinois area...thinking about maybe heading that way Sunday if it ever stops raining:sour:

Thanks for the welcome:D What a beautiful state you have to ride in! Lived in Flint and Bay City many many years ago as a kid...Just went to the UP in 2007...was so pretty... cool to see beaches on Lake Superior

Ride that way often. Usually not on sunday as it's crowded that day. But wouldn't mind meeting if it's not raining. :welcome:

You are right...Sunday's are busy down there...next week is open so if we decide to go during the week i will try to send you a message and maybe we can get together...any recommendations on where to stop and get a bite to eat? Only been down there a few times

Linda and I run the Great River Road around Grafton with some regularity, usually during the week. It is also a run time, very senic. Unfortunately, this comming week appears to be forecasting a good amount of rain and since we just got back from Eureka Springs Arkansas this past Thursday and got drenched in a storm the last three hours comming back into St. Louis, I don't think that I am ready to ride again in the rain:gaah:
Keep us in mind if you ever do it again in sunny weather.

:welcome:

Y Rider is from Quincy and I'm sure he will be welcoming you soon. I'm a little far north in Illinois.

:welcome: Good eateries on the River Road include The Loading Dock, Fast Eddies (Alton).

We're looking at riding tomorrow...depends on the weather. Can stand a little rain, but don't want to ride only in the rain. LOL

You might try fin-inn I think its open. If your looking for a sandwich & cold one try the Hawg pit. It was closed [due to the flood] the last time i was there. Of course it's suppost to rain most of next wk. send me a pm and if its not raining I'll try to set up a meet and greet.:dontknow: ride safe Ben:ohyea:
