OFFICIAL SPYDERFEST 2013 REGISTRATION April 24-28, 2013

[GloryRyders]

Well yesterdays meeting of the MoGang was a "fun filled", "worked filled" time of planning. The agenda is starting to come together but still need to finalize and confirm some of the venues. Keep you eyes out for the schedule of events which will be posted as soon as everything is confirmed. The party is comming soon, so get registered and make those room reservations ASAP. Some of the hotels are all ready filled and you don't want to miss out.

I cancelled my rv site lodging, I found a little cottage in the historical district for $250 fully furnished, breakfast next door. I guess it pays to look around first, I am so looking forward to this trip.

Just made my reservations for SpyderFest at the Hampton Inn South on Glenstone St. Rates are a little more but I always try to stay at Hampton's. According to the hotel they are 5 min. from the Comfort inn. Will be registering shortly. Made it to SF in 2011 so am looking forward to this one.

[YIRYDE]

Yes we can give you all of thatonce we have all the details tied down.

Some of the details will be loaded on www.spyderfest.com as we get them finalized and then of course details, including address, GPS coordinates, etc will be in your booklet you will get at registration

GPS... isn't that what men think they have programmed in their brain!!

Think we might have to buy a garmin so Kev doesn't get lost!!

[Desert Spyder]

Just signed up for Spyderfest IV, our 2nd pilgrimage to the Spyder mecca. I hope we meet many old and new friends on Rte 66! Staying at the La Quinta South.

Some lucky ryder on Comfort Inn's wait list is going to make out. I just canceled my res there in favor of a camping spot at KOA.

I got a tent spot, but wouldn't mind sharing a cabin with a couple other ladies. If anyone is interested please PM me.

[Schultzi]

Linda...How much trouble would it be to add the state where people are coming from?...It would be nice to know for the folks who want to meet up as a group to ride down...I realize it's more work on your part but I think Spyderlovers coming to the fest would benefit greatly...How about I offer you a couple bottles of great wine to do this....

Schultzi, you crazy SOB, glad to see that you're coming again this year! Try to keep your key in your pocket, or at least bring a spare and give it to me when you get there. I'd like to see you make it back home again, with your bike, LOL.

Scooter, we are flying by the seat of our pants... as usual. We have the basic parts planned. Now, we just have to fine tune them and move them around to make sure that everything else works out. Give us a little more time and we'll have better and more accurate details.

Never been to MO, what's the weather like there in April, hot Texas heat, New England rain?

We have a saying in MO. 'if you don't like the weather... wait 10 minutes and it will change'. End of April could bring snow, hail, heat, tornadoes, and possibly... nice weather.

I agree, but with the exception of Comfort Inn it was hard to find any good reviews for the others. I personally don't like Comfort Inns as I've never found them to be comfortable and the mini pillows drive me nuts. Really? You will give me four half pillows? Why not two whole pillows? Also, the Days Inn was cheaper [than some] and since I'm traveling solo price is something I want to keep an eye on.

But, I don't want to hog the thread.

The Comfort Inn is currently full. Hopefully I won't be the only one at Days Inn

Understood, but when we approached the local hotels about discounted rates for SF attendees, Days Inn was the only motel that was not interested in cooperating with us, and that's putting it nicely. They will catch the over flow after all the other's book up. But, their attitude was the reason that they were left off of the list of preferred motels. We do our best to make this an awesome event, and that even extends to where we offer room recommendations.

Registered at host Hotel, , trying to stay till Sunday morning but may have to head back Saturday morning.

Looking forward to seeing you again, TB. Got some great fireworks for this year's event. It's gonna be awesome! See you soon, bro.

I'm currently deployed overseas with the Army, but will be home (in Ohio) in time for Spyderfest.

We welcome you home, Army Joe. Thanks for your service! Look us up when you get there.

Understood. Will do my best. I have requested the state be included when the list is sent to me on Sundays. If it is provided state will be added. Wine (venom) is always welcome... But not the dry stuff

So I will get to cry a bit when I see my first Spyder? Will I recognize it?

SpyderLady you are doing a terriffic job posting the entries. It is a job I wouldn't want to attempt under any circumstances. That said I noticed my forum name on the list in post 1 is miss written "20Limited!@" should read 20Limited12.
Thanks for all your work on this event

Will try to remember to correct it, but no promises. I will have to remember to manually change it each time as I am not typing the list, just doing a little magic and inserting it the way entered on the registration page.

"TS" aka Twysted Syster your are doing an excellent job. Some venom this weekend???
