    Talked to Motor Jim today and I believe "he's in" still working on Hotel plans

    PM'd Trickie Dick last night and found out he's going and staying at the Best Western

    I'm going and staying at the Best Western as it stands now.

    Anybody else?

    Come on Indiana spyderlovers, make your reservations and go. This is THE spyder event of the year. (at least until the owners meeting) There will be 700-800 spyders there and it will be fun.
    Lets set up a caravan to go down. Most of us are going in on Tuesday, 4/23. It starts the next morning. Believe me, you need to make your lodging reservations now. It will fill up. One of the reasons they moved it from Cuba, was the lack of lodging for everyone.

    Default 1000 Spyders

    The way I figure it we should easily be able to get 1000 Spyders at Spyderfest 2013. Pitbull Powersports is going to be ready for us So no limit on the number of Spyders and ryders that can go! Do I think that Spyderfest is the premier event of the year?

    Red Stallion: 2016 F3t SE6 (from Pitbull PowerSports/ Springfield, MO)
    White Knight: 2014 RTS SE6 and matching 622 trailer (from Pitbull

    Ms Spydee: 2010 RT SE5

    I'll see y'all when you get there. I finalized up the route and plans tonight. We should be getting into Springfield on the evening of the 20th. We have a few days planned before spyderfest to explore Kansas and Oklahoma. Going to be a good time this year . . . As always.

    Working out logistics on going!
    As an FYI... a good and easy place to meet on the Westside is the cellphone lot at the airport.....lots of room with quick and easy access to highway. Just need a meet-up time.

    Hope you can make it.
    Right now the plan is to meet at the Love's Truck Stop at exit 59, I70 West of Indy on Tuesday morning around 10:00-10:30. As the time grows closer we can get a head count. Champagne's east coast party is spending the previous night in Columbus and scheduled to leave there at 7:00. We think 10:30 is a reasonable time to meet. We do need to be ready to go when they show up and gas up.

    Looks like I'm in! Staying at the Baymont Inns & Suites.

    Dick seeing how we are neighbors (Carmel & Fishers) we can ride to the meet up together along with any other "North Siders".

    Default I'm signed up and ready to roll!

    Not sure I'll have my Spyder by then (I hope I do!) but if not, I'll be on two wheels. Or, someother mode of transportation. I'll know more as we get closer.

    I'm Mike's (Spyder Fun) friend and we'll be in the caravan leaving Tuesday morning.

    Welcome aboard

    Just picked up my new 2013, Pearl White, RT Limited (with black seat) from RT Sales in Zulu, IN. SE side of Ft. Wayne, IN. Even though I took my trailer with me, I rode the Spyder back home... 150 miles in the cold and close to 100 miles of that in the rain. I kept getting knocked aound in the wind. As I learn to ride this I'm hoping it gets better. More to follow. Pictures, too.

    Congrats,Jerry. You will love it. Learn to relax those hands and let it lead. Its tough starting out in the rain. They say it takes a few hundred miles to start getting comfortable with the spyder. It's very different that a 2 wheeler.
    Still going to spyderfest. ?
