We would like to invite you to our fifth-annual Can-Am Spyder roadster owner event – June 20-22 in scenic Durango, Colorado. As we know each of our loyal Can-Am Spyder owners has a deep passion for the open road, Durango is a perfect destination to experience some of best the Rocky Mountains have to offer. BRP officials will also be there to meet you, as will hundreds of other Spyder riders! Like last year's event, this year's event is going to be informative, casual and – most of all – fun! For more information on what to explore in the area, please visit the following link: Durango Area Tourism Office (http://www.durango.org)


The agenda is nearly finalized, and as you can see, we have a lot of activities and rides in store for you. Everyone at BRP is very excited for this year's event and we cannot wait to see each of you in June! Like last year, we also will be giving away a trip to next year's European Spyder Owner Event.


If you are interested in participating in the Can-Am Spyder customization contest, please e-mail spyderevents@brp.com for a contest entry form. There will be two categories this year. Best paint, and best overall customization. Each category will be explained in detail on the entry form.


For group rides, we have several picked out and mapped for each of you. The rides range from four-plus hours to short, two-hour rides. We will have four guided this year: Million Dollar Highway (150-mile loop), Mesa Verde (120-mile loop), Telluride (250-mile loop), Four Corners Monument (170-mile loop). We also have several other suggested routes for you as well! You will have a complete map and schedule in your registration packet.

:clap:I like this schedule! Guided rides sound good and the catered meal at the beginning of the event instead of the last night is a great idea.

How can I apply for a guide?
Is this year Customization Show open again for the mod manufacturers? Last year winner was the owner of the Canadian Vertika. :shocked:
