I printed out the 2012 map showing all the vendor areas at Daytona International. They show a space designated as Spyder Demo Tour in the same location they've been before fronting on ISB just north of Tram Stop 17. The area is designated as Lot 1 & Daytona Motorcycle Marketplace. Hope the map is telling us the truth. Flying down 13th for 10 days.

Sorry but I just found out that ALL of the OEM manufacturers have pulled out of the Daytona event including BRP.

WOW, guess that just makes it a ride to Daytona for the ride. Must be the economic times hitting everyone.

"the American International Motorcycle Expo now has a home for its official launch in the Fall of 2013." ???

Correct:The American International Motorcycle Expo (AIME) has signed a three-year contract to host its show at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Marketplace Events announced in early May. The trade show will be held Wednesday, Oct. 16, and Thursday, Oct. 17, with the consumer event starting Friday, Oct. 18, running through Sunday. The AIME show was unveiled in January, but the dates and location weren’t narrowed until recently.
“Orlando is the best pick right now to launch this show, to really launch the engagement and the excitement that the show is going to create,” said Little, vice president and general manager of Marketplace Events’ Motorcycle Group.

Just maybe we call all meet in or around Orlando and visit The American International Motorcycle Expo consumer event starting Friday, Oct. 18, running through Sunday.

What is the Speedway Ride on Friday?

For $30 a ticket motorcycles will be allowed to do two laps around the Daytona International Speedway. I do believe it is at 5:00 pm on that Friday. I did it last year. It was a blast. And will be doing it again this year!

My guess is it was supposed to be a B&B and his finger slipped. LOL

Ok so BRP is saving the best till March, but that doesn't stop the many Spyder owners that are heading out to Daytona. There's about a dozen Spyder riders staying right across the track at the Suburban Suites so lets meet up at the track Friday morning lets say 9am? We can all head to breakfast at a great place called Crabby Joe's which is on the pier. You sit out on the pier right above the ocean. Then we can do a group ride perhaps to St Augustine etc...Let me know who's in and we meet up at the front entrance of the track at Bill France Boulevard traffic light. 9AM Friday... See you guys there..

[effgjamis]

I am ready.... however, the B&E is just across the street...
