They are just north of town on Hwy 65 maybe a 1/4 mile on the right...I believe they open at 9am.

Dear Butch and Puala
I
really like that dealership in Mora-------I had a chance to compete with Seth 0 and at the awards banquet Mr Caswell announced that I was the winner.I am the proud owner of a CAN AM hat from last years MN. event ---- My guess is that's why Seth is sending in a talented competitor on his clean machine.
Well I am sad to say I have been scratched from the Mora Mora run. My hopes of meeting and spending some quality time with Heather gone ----darn.

Here is a picture of Seth 0 right behind me over my right shoulder.

RTGene where have you been! I've got your room ready in Vegas but sorry we only have a blue plastic swimming pool.

[Paula(Butch2025)]

Gene,
It's great to hear from you...I've missed reading your posts and was wondering what you've been up to these days.
Sorry to hear you'll have to pass on this ride, but we do have rides planned each month through October. It's not Spyderfest but we do have a good time, maybe one of those will work into your schedule so that you can visit us up here in the Northland! That way you can beat out Seth again and even meet Heather too! We'll have to keep your visit on the QT so, he doesn't hear about it and send his replacement again!
Take care and keep in touch,
Paula

It seems that Mr. Gene and his lovely bride attended Spyderfest for a day and he didn't say hi to his old friends from the Michigan Bridge Ride. I'm withdrawing my invitation for him to come to Vegas. I was even going to buy him a Diet Pepsi.

[RTGENE]

Dear Ms. Ann zero one
For two days I looked up and down for you-----everyone said you just left.

If the pool is the three ring blow up you had in Michigan ------I'm surprised it made the trip.
and
I would take the rescind more seriously if it came form the man of the house. So please expect to see me in the guest room. A good supply of cold Coke Zero during the day would be nice. Two over easy with Jimmy Dean sausage and English muffins will do nicely thank you.

The only picture I have of the shore line from the Mackinaw bridge got blocked by some rider --darn

:roflblack: I was asking about you at Spyderfest and someone said that you were there I just figured that they didn't really know you. I couldn't believe that we wouldn't have heard you if you were within 20 miles of Cuba. Joe says you can come visit but you'll have to share the guest room with our new boy.45884
and the pool with Sammy 45885 and the couch with Em 45886

Paula; Great to see you at Spyderfest, you new ride looks great. Butch, they did finish the TB repair but too late for the ride or parade. Headed for home the next morning. Just about bought the farm the following day. Coming over a hill in the heavy rain a pickup in the opposite lane lost it. Driver was in our lane but I am sure he did not want to head-on a large motorhome so he cranked the wheel to the right and hit the ditch, fence, power pole etc. Traffic was scattered everywhere. Carolyn called 911 and reported it. We had to keep going as no place for us to turn off and park the MH and trailer. Met the police about 2 miles up the road heading for the crash site.

Looks like I will make the ride Saturday. Still a few issues on the RT but will discuss them with Les that day. See you then. Mike

:clap: So very happy you made it through that one! It was a pretty nasty ride in the rain that day, thank goodness we had our helmet communication working that day. Just being able to talk to someone (Butch) made it much more bearable. See you Saturday.

I have to re-size mine before I upload them into an album on this site, but here's a photo with the giant walleye!

What a great ride - we had eleven spyders (and a harley) It was lots of fun to meet up with some new members to our group and catch up with the oldies too. Rest up and get ready for our next ride:doorag: - June 2 - Les mentioned a "cheese" ride!!!!

[SpyderAnn01]

Looks like you had fun. Love the giant Walleye
