So the Georgia Spyder ??? have been relegated to a single entity, a person, if you will and are taking second place?

What the heck, have fun and know that we are thinking of you.

It was a tough choice - but we have tickets and all.... If it was my son's competition weekend I could have gotten around it with someone else driving him. In this case I have way too much going on in October something every weekend -- the only thing that will change my crazy October is - well, my mother is in Hospice care in the nursing home, (one day is great the next is poor and the third is good again). My hat is off to the angles of the Hospice process.

Sprong 2011 1 007.jpgWe now have firmer plans for the meetup. We will try to bring along some other Spyderists (Roadsterists?) from our neck of the woods in coastal SC. We will be meeting up with you all then plan to spend the night somewhere in the Augusta Aiken area before proceeding to Stone Mtn. Oh, speaking of Aiken, anyone ever been to Spider Web SC? Little park southwest of Aiken. I'll try to find my pics from there and post. Or, has anyone been to Harlem Ga, for the Oliver Hardy birthplace tour? Well by any road, ride to eat, eat to ride....

Okay, me and Tammy are coming now. I had to reschedule the camping!!!

**Ga Blue Knight** · 10-03-2011, 10:45 AM

So my current guestimate is about 22 folks on about 15 bikes! Looking good folks keep getting the word out to friends on three or two wheels. We can always use a few converts!

**lovinlife** · 10-04-2011, 07:20 AM

Looking forward to joining you all in Augusta!

**Yol Bolsun** · 10-04-2011, 08:42 AM

The 22nd looks good for me and my wife.

**Yol Bolsun** · 10-07-2011, 04:44 PM

Sounds good Doc, might tag up with JohnnyB (another old swabbie). He is planning to pick us up somewhere therebouts and lead us on in.

Ms Daisy will be there

**GA-SPYDER** · 10-08-2011, 09:30 PM

Somebody told me that there was a

invasion in Augusta!
Got a couple of friends that are also riding GS's. Will let them know about the 22nd meet.
The wife and I will be there. She will be on two wheels.

Gotta get on the forum more often!

Carl and Karen

**Johnny-B** · 10-10-2011, 01:12 PM

Just saw the Augusta Harley Dealer is also having a car and bike show on the 22nd, may want to wander over there after Tomberlin stop, I always get great compliments when I pull in and even more when the cost is cheaper than an Ultra, imagine all the

's pulling in at one time, may have to take over whole parking lot. will have live band, food and vendors too.

**tobor9** · 10-10-2011, 04:29 PM

Sofia(SDM) and I were planing to come together, but it looks like Sofia can't get the day off{she works a 12hr shift Sat. and Sun. night} but since i'm retired i'm planning to be there to represent Charleston,SC SpYders.

Hey Johnny B! If we all went to the Harley bike and car show we would most likely out number the HD customers three to one by the way things are going over there lately! Let's talk about it over lunch at the Carolina Ale House!

Well it looks like this is going to be a pretty large event! I've lost count exactly but I would not be surprised if we had at least 50 folks and 35

!

**Yol Bolsun** · 10-11-2011, 07:01 AM

I invited a Martinez HD rider to join us.

**Kestrel** · 10-11-2011, 08:01 AM

Stopped in the dealership yesterday --

Would we go there after lunch/after the ride?

Tomberlin Outdoors on Washington Road in Augusta.

**Yol Bolsun** · 10-11-2011, 08:52 AM

I think this is working finally. On the Canam/BRP community map.

Sparky, check with Oldandgrouchy. He is our lead this time.

Hey Johnny-B,
I think that would be a great idea! The parking lot is not real big, but, we could pack em in! The wife and I have been to some functions there, along with other friends.
Still working on the two other GS's to show up. Hope the weather holds up!

Hey Sparks, the informal agenda is to meet around 11:00 am at the Carolina Ale House, mill about waiting for folks to gather up and then go have some lunch at 11:30 am. About 12:45 or so get all geared up and leave for Tomberlin (Can Am Dealer). Arrive around 1:00 or so. I expect after an hour we will be ready to do something else so we can then go for a short ride around downtown, the powder works, canal etc and then head up to the Harley dealer for the car and bike show. That way folks will be near the I 20 entrance for the return home.

**bruceofthebronx** · 10-12-2011, 04:33 AM

Wish we could be there but there's always a next time. Be thinking about ya, eat something for me. Peace.

Bruce & Marilyn.

We can do a drive by during the ride downtown the fair site is pretty much just outside of the downtown area. You can't miss it just follow your nose!

**MarkLawson** · 10-15-2011, 10:47 PM

Hey Guys, I drove to Oklahoma City today to visit with my sister who is in the hospital. I hope to be back home by the middle to latter part of the week & in Augusta Saturday. She'shaving heart valve surgery Monday or Tuesday & I'll be staying until after the surgery & when I know she'll be OK, so don't know for sure when I'll be able to leave for home.

Doc says this is a "difficult" surgery, so would really appreciate your prayers.

Thanks!
