    Default Good Times @ SpyderFest!

    We are having a very good time at SpyderFest. We have been hanging out at Lamonster's Garage. Meeting a lot of SpyderLover's there. SpyderPop's is set up here as well.

    So good to see old friends again and talk about the great times we've had. And meet those of you I've talked to over the phone or traded emails with.

    Tomorrow will be our last day. So if you get the chance, come by and see us. Love to say hello and shake your hand. Lamont has a nice facility here with some interesting Spyders and a Ryker to look at.

    Wherever you are. I hope you are enjoying a ride on your Spyder/Ryker this week.

    Sorry you couldn't make it. I just barely did.

    It's been a lot of overcast. But weather is holding (dry) and temps have been good. We've been tweaking the install for the new Ryker sway bar at Lamont's Garage. Mostly working on the install sequence to make it easier, etc. Worked out a few minor bugs as well. It's finally ready for Prime Time!

    It's great that the Spyderfest is going well.

    I went to Spyderfest in 2013, & 2014 I met some great spyder owners. It was a good time.

    Hope the weather holds out for all.


    I did not go this time, due to my job status.

    I did not go because it's Snowing!!!
    Wish it was held a little later in the year so some of us Canucks could join the festivities!
    I know some will say "you could trailer your Spyder" but to me ryding to the event is half the fun!

    Good to see you too Ann and Joe and everyone else I got to meet. Enjoyed my short stint to The Rock. Had not seen the digs there before today. Quite the setup. Wish I'd brought my KTM!

    Spyderfest is put on by Pitbull Powersports and is held at The Rock in Bolivar. That is the official “Spyderfest”

    The Spyderfest event is put on by Pitbull Powersports at The Rock, as mentioned. Lamonster Garage is located just a few miles down the road in Nixa, a suburb of Springfield. A good number of riders stopped by to say hello visit, check out the customized Spyders Lamont has on display and to get products installed that were not offered at Spyderfest, It was a great time and we enjoyed seeing everyone there.

    The Elka shocks for the Ryker look awesome! I did not get a chance to ride Lamont's Ryker with the Elka shocks mounted. But I would guess they will make a great deal of difference.

    They say 'Better Late then Never'. I hope this applies here!

    These pictures were taken at the Lamonster Garage facility located a few miles from the actual Spyderfest event. A lot of people made the trek from Spyderfest to come by and visit. Some came to get 'Stuff' for their Spyders. SpyderPops set up at the back of the parking area and he was very busy. His daughter was also there doing custom paint and awesome windshield etchings. I think everyone had a great time!

    John from Elka also had a space. He put a set of their new Ryker shocks on Lamont's Ryker. They look awesome! Didn't get a chance to ride it, but if they work half as good as they look, they will be amazing!

    We also put the new BajaRon Sway Bar on SpyderPop's Ryker. Big improvement, I am happy to say! I will get pictures of the new bar posted soon. I'm working on the installation instructions today.

    There was a steady stream of riders coming and going all day long. Many happy faces, great conversation and a lot of fun! The number in this picture was about average.

    Lamont's workshop. Lamont is doing an install of something on a customer's Spyder. Unlike many shops. You get to watch the work being done if you like. Though the install may take longer if you talk while they work.
