SpyderLovers/Owners meet in Daytona

[Lamonster]

Edit Again: Looks like NASA decided that the launch is to be held the following week and they would not move it up a week for the SpyderRyders so BRP is still going to have some sort of group ride but it just won't be to watch the Space Shuttle launch. :'(

Looks like it's a go for Daytona and BRP :doorag: :bigthumbsup:

The only reason I said Sat. is because there may be local guys or gals that have to work Friday but could make it on Sat. :dontknow:

[spyder13]

[Lamonster]

You might get lucky. My Bro ordered his June 7th and they told him March and it looks like we get to pick it up this week. :doorag: :bigthumbsup:

[Lamonster]

By the way if you show up for this I'll give you a FREE SpyderLovers.com decal. That would be like $.50 if you had to buy one. ;) ;D

Looks like there is a slight problem with the date. Atlantis is sked to launch on 7 Feb, not 7 Mar. Just a heads up that the ride may well be to a different locus.

[barb36jack31]

Looks like there 11 riders signed up for the Mar 7 event at Daytona. Let's have some more! I can't wait to talk with you guys/gals and compare notes!

I plan to come down for the Daytona ride from Orange Park or over from Mt. Dora, hopefully with the wife. Looking forward to seeing a number of SpYder Lovers. It is not the destination -- it's the ride!

I just picked mine up a few weeks ago, still getting used to not leaning to turn.But I love this thing. First thing besides a car in seventeen years.I am planning on heading over from Manatee county, Palmetto. Where are you guys staying at and are there more rooms available, I don't want to have to ride all the way back to the other side of the state and it would be nice to stay with people who have the same bike.I have Thursday thru Monday off work...can't wait to meet some of my fellow spyder ryders ! Any information would be appreciated

Right on, Lamonster. Reminds me of the bumper sticker, "I rode my bike to Trailer Week". :joke:

[TrailerTrash]

::) Do you suppose they meant "Trunk"? I'd be disappointed if they were serious about the truck!

[webmaster]

OK guys, I found out where we're staying (thanks for the return e-mail :bigthumbsup:) I'll try to hook up early with you and see what kinda rides we can find, can't wait to meet you guys and gals.
We had bad storms that rolled through all afternoon and evening last night and the temp went from the eighties down to the 50's for a high. I certainly hope it warms up a little, that way the riding will be comfortable.
See you soon. Yuri :spyder:

[wildwillie]

You guys have a great time take lots of pics.If I get a miracle Ill join you .wildwillie :bigthumbsup:

[jeuchler]

Have fun without us folks waiting for our March delivery (snif). :dontknow:

[morgcl]

i only live about 70 miles north of daytona. my wife and i plan to do several day trips during bike week.

[barb36jack31]

Getting all fired up about the Daytona event. I'm about one hour south of Daytona, but I go out through the boonies to get there. Looking forward to seeing all you Spyder guys and gals. This old fud is feeling like a kid again just thinking about it.

Hasta Friday!!

[Lamonster]

I can't even tell you how excited I am ;D :hot: :2excited:

[TrailerTrash]

Those of us on the left coast can't even begin to tell you how bummed we are! :'( Hope you all have a great time and think of us out here!

[hollylmh]

I trailered my Spyder to Orange Park in my new Web and it liked it so much it refused to start and come out!! It has spastically acted like I was trying to use the wrong key since the second day -- but always change it's mind and started -- but not this time! It is now at the JAX dealer waiting on a brain -- they said they could not order one for me also. IF it gets here Thursday, and works[!?!], I still hope to make it down for Friday.

[webmaster]

Lamont, have you heard anything about a spider crashing out over there in Daytona? One of my friends said someone was going to hot into a corner and lost it. I hope it's just B.S. I haven't been able to find anything on the net about it. Any info would be appreciated !

[hspyder]

Will be there on the 17th. Looking forward to see you guys there!:thumbup:
