    Default Wondering about the weather on Sunday!!

    Hey everyone, we got caught in a major downpour today and we don't want that again. We are still planning on 2:00 unless there are heavy rains or thundershowers. If we have to cancel, we will reschedule hopefully for next weekend.

    Wish we could be there, but we're still a long way from being up to speed. Hope the weather holds for you.

    Avoided the rain today on the road - but did get some rain while at the syrup fest - many left - but we decided to wait it out as the rain only lasted 45 minutes.

    It did make a complete mess of the baseball field we were parked in - and many bikes got stuck - digging ruts - real mess. Quite a few were worried about my Spyder making it out - that the rear tire wouldn't get enough traction to push the front tires through the mud.

    I assured them (and then showed them) that the Spyder would have no problem at all. Spyder did better than anyone I saw leaving.

    After we got home in the afternoon there was a hell of a downpour- and I was really glad to already be home!

    Will have to play tomorrow by ear.

    I am going to church in the morning prepared and with faith. I was looking at weather reports (don't trust them anyway) and there is less of a chance of rian south of us then in my neck of the woods. So I am packing my rain gear and the banner. I am going to plan on riding unless it is just ridiculous weather. A few sprinkles won't hurt me or an occasional shower. Just don't want an outright downpour or lightening. So as of right now, I am planning on being there.

    It rained all night in Grand Rapids and north, but Battle Creek was dry, and still is. Looks like the south part of the state will be spared. Hope you can pull it off. Wish we could be a part of it.

    Why is everybody so worried?

    The Banner is waterproof and so is The Sharpie!

    Default some pictures from today

    I guess I got home first so here are some pictures I took at the St. Louis Center in Chelsea, MI for the Blessing of the Bikes and then on to Hell, Mi for the banner signing. I hit some rain on the way home but it was still a fantastic day of Spydering!

    Great pics!!! You should post them in the "Banner" thread on the main discussion forum!! They're kind of hiding in this thread.

    Looks like a great time was had by all. This is a fab concept of the Banner traveling across country. Great way to meet SpyderLovers!!!!

    Seems the day turned out pretty good- I'm sure you had more fun than the housework I did instead.....

    Not really into the B.O.B. thing, but glad you all enjoyed!

    Default Blessing on the Bike

    After a few hours in Hell, Grandson #1 wanted his picture on the Spyder. Not sure if the bike is blessed, but we are. And to think his little brother is the cute one.
