It looks like there will be at lease 3 spYders ryding out together from Lake City, and at least 2 more joining us up the road at Clayton. That will make a nice group. Looking forward to eating at Dillard House--I hear they have some great checken and fixins.
The weather looks to be good and we are packed and ready to go!!!
Mary and I look forward to seeing everyone at Maggie Valley in 2 days.

**Recon** · 06-14-2011, 09:15 PM

JC, good to hear that you and Carol will be there after all; we will be in the Microtel about 1 pm on Wednesday. we've been up here at Lake Norman (above Charlotte) since last week and had a storm on Sunday evening, but weather looks better this week. Went to see Tony Stewart's garage and Joe Gibbs garage today and we are heading West about 10 in the morning. Ryde Safe

**Wheeler~** · 06-15-2011, 11:00 AM

JC, it's sure been a roller coaster ride for you and Carol but glad to hear you're going to make it. I still have my fingers crossed for you guys, given all of the changes in the last few weeks. The Florida Xpress leaves out in less than 6 hours. Mike and I have ended up in a cabin in Murphy lent to us by friends of my brothers. Psyched!!!! See you guys Friday for sure then! Ryde and be safe!!

**Scooter** · 06-15-2011, 05:14 PM

WE MADE IT, got here about 5:30 at the Microtel Inn, and it's raining cats and dogs,

**BikerDoc** · 06-16-2011, 08:02 PM

Great ride for our group up to Clayton Ga and then into WEstern North Carolina and the Blue Ridge Parkway.. We couldn't resist some hotdogging on some of the curvaceous NC highways.. Fun Fun Fun

**SpydeRider2010** · 06-16-2011, 09:24 PM

my Wife and I leave out Saturday morning, at "0" dark-thirty. we should be there before Brunch.

**johnnyg** · 06-16-2011, 09:33 PM

Just an update on some late spyders coming up from FL. We pulled out at 5:30 This morning. We had rain till I-10. We thought we were going to have it good from there, then we ran into heavy smoke till almost to Tifton GA. After that we had good weather. When we stopped just south of GA line to get some food and gas up and guess what we seen another spyder and trailer. Turn out to be spyderhusband and Sue. We rode together to Clayton GA Arrived here 5:15.We will see you all in MV tomorrow. One other thing Carol got her windsheild yesterday and I put it on for her for the ride. We rode 475 Miles for her first long ride on her new RS. I must say I'm Very proud of her for doing such a good job. This is the first time she has driven any type of bike or

long distance, shes grinning ear to ear and is ready to ride tomorrow. JC

Now that I have been elected to be the new photogragher here is a couple pics of today. The photo with Carol with the one finger up is her first 1000 miles.

**InspectorGadget** · 06-17-2011, 03:25 PM

We had a nice ryde today with 9 spyders. 220 miles, of wonderful riding weather on some of the greatest roads including the TOG, Foothills Parkway, and Blue Ridge Parkway.
Thanks to all of my trailers, as I now rank them as experienced riders, and some were newbies---but no more!!!!!! GREAT job gang.

WE'RE JEALOUS

Glad everyone is having fun and riding safe. As things worked out it's good that we didn't go. We're leaving in the morning to drive to Atlanta for a couple of days of work. Pretty important stuff so it's good that we're able to go. Only downside is we're taking the van!

Great pic's Johnny, thanks for sharing. CJ sure looks good her her new

Mike

**johnnyg** · 06-17-2011, 10:21 PM

Mike and sis sorry you can't be here, so here are some of the pics we took today. A few were of our ride from Clayton Ga to here and the others are of the spyder registration. More to come tomorrow. Sorry if some are blurry I'm the new designated photographer and I'm riding down the road taking some of them. JC
