on the spyder and to the world of Spyderlovers. Where in Eastern Missouri are you? Make plans now for the October ryde and stay in Branson the weekend of the 7th, 8th, and 9th. Their should still be available rooms that are reserved at the College of the Ozarks. Give Len a call at Cowtown USA in Cuba (573-885-6300) and introduce yourself. He is the unofficial leader of our little band.
I am just south of Cape Girardeau, so if you ever want to hook up on the ryde to Cuba or Branson or heck,,, anywhere just pop me a PM!

Where at in East MO?? inquireing minds need to know!!
I am in the St. Charles area.....lol.....gotta keep a low-profile.
There are other MoGang members in the St. Charles area.............keep an eye out for them to respond to you. Besides I am not that far way, I am in the city proper, we need to meet and greet sometime.
I am getting ready to begin loading the trailer with furniture. Yuck.
See ya. Enjoy the rYde!!!!
I bet we had more fun than you didIt's a shame that you had to miss the ryde today..............weather cooperated, at least in the morning, and lunch was great! I'm sure that someone will be posting pictures of all of us on the "BIG Rocking Chair" with all the gathered around.
The ryde was fun and am sorry I had to quit early. Was REALLY great seeing ya'll since I missed the last 2 rydes!!! Great that Lamont was along for the fun too. Hope Linda and Jim got back home OK. And Spyder Lady Linda got the brakes fixed from makin ya go nuts!!! BUT that usually travels with us everytime we ryde together ............you know NUTS???? I thank you Linda for the use of your sun glasses!!!! GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!!!!! I do wish I had my stuff together tho Forgot the sun glasses, the camera, can't find the pants to the Frogg Toggs!!!! Totally lost it today..... brain someplace else!!! Hope Bumblebee got home ok. I know the heat was gettin to you too. I think the guys were doin ok but us girls were having our issues with the heat.( in my case it's those dad gum hot flashes!!!!) Anyway hope all get to get home ok.
Great day in spite of the heat. I went to the wrong ice cream shop, but still got my treat!! I am home.. safe and now much cooler. Take care everyone see you next month or sooner
Hey Jim
I saw some of the pics and it does look like a great time was had by all ( in spite of the heat)!
I am QUITE sure you guys had more fun than me. Ever notice how a high humidity 110 index feels different on the Spyder than it does on say,, mowing and weed trimming,, or moving furniture as an example!!
We were so happy to finish up. After moving my son in, I broke out the screw gun and tools and began putting some ent. centers etc together for him. With every bolt, nail, and door hinge installed, I was thinking how much more fun I'd be having at the ice cream shoppe! But 'ol dad has to be there. Like every one else, I'd do just about anything for my kid. And since we haven't figured out how to be in two places at once (like Len and Lamont seem to be able to do LOL) we just had to be there helping him today.
Well, we finished up around 8:00 and got a shower then headed over to eat at Helen Fitzgeralds Pub near or in Kirkwood. I'm not real familiar with where the boundaries are, but my son moved to Crestwood where I hope he will stay for his final four years of school. We come back up to STL in September for his "white coat" ceremony. He goes to STLCOP over by Barnes Jewish Hospital. The food was good and we ended the day on a happy note with just me, Connie, our son and his girlfriend having a nice meal together. That really made up for the hard work of the day.
Anyway. I digress. Sure wish we coulda been there, but we are glad you all had a good time and survived the heat!!
Prayers for the safety of all who headed over to Sturgis. By the way, I never heard, is Len taking the chopper or a Performance RT or some other ride?
Stay safe. We will see you next time!
Steve and Connie Mac

Look for my purple spyder. John and I live in O'Fallon.. John rides a silver RT... We would be more than happy to have you join us for a ride or whatever. Keep in touch
Steve............Crestwood is real close (just outside the city limits) to where we live..............if you come in town for a visit with your son, let me know and we can maybe meet up with you.
Excellent! We will definitely do that. We can make a nice ryde to see our son (Todd is his name) by coming up through old Hwy 61. The area they Bloomsdale is really scenic. So I think we will make the trip as often as possible. We we will be in touch!!

Since the official ride is October 9th, if someone wantsto add a fun ride, I found this info. The ride would be about 200 miles roundtrip. The first Saturday in October Versailles, MO has an Apple Festival. It’ssupposed to be the biggest one day event in the state. See attachment. Anyoneup for a ride or meet us there?
FASTER, FASTER 'Till The Thrill of Speed Overcomes The Fear Of Death
This might be a fun thing to do................we will have to check the calendar as it gets closer.

What is the going rate everyone is paying for the reserved block of rooms for our Branson ride ? I just booked mine it is $151.00 per night. Is this correct ?
Hey Gang, September ride huumm have 3 options, just kinda waiting alittle closer to see the weather to set it in stone. Looking forward to our October trip. On the room, they are pricey, but they are really hi end sweets, set up for 2 couples, there in the main lodge that is very first class, if you all would like a bit cheaper room you can book in the normal room that is behind the main center. Either way is fine google the ketter center at college of the Ozarks in Branson mo. Very neat place. And feel free to have a room all to your self there pretty cool, going to be a really layed back relaxing weekend.... No getting in a hurry all easy go fun weekend.
