    Default Newfoundlander (groundeffect) in Florida on business

    Hey there, Florida Spyder Lovers!!!

    I am in Orlando for the week on business. Unfortunately I do not have my Spyder with me, it is waiting for my return this coming weekend. I flew down.


    I am in training til 6pm until Friday. I am wondering if there are any Spyderlovers near/in the Orlando area that are up for heading out to dinner, maybe Thursday evening?

    Cheers!
    Dean

    Dean, I may very well be over in Daytona on Thursday. I'm not sure what time I'll be getting back. However, feel free to give me a shout 407-444-5533, Chris.

    How long are you going to be here? Perhaps you could rent a spyder. I think that both Seminole Power Sports in Sanford and Central Florida Power Sports have spyder rentals. I'm not sure how much they are. Both places are very close to Orlando.

    If you can't call, then email me at cray542464@aol.com.

    Dean, I am game for Thursday evening, as we discussed on the telephone.
    Chris, I am going over to Daytona Friday and meet up with the southern posse and have dinner at the Orange Steak house. Hope to see you Friday..

    SOLUTION:

    1. Change plane ticket to Monday, the 18th.
    2. We all meet for dinner Thursday evening. (you name it)
    3. Take Doc up on his offer, and we all go to Daytona, Saturday, the 16th and spend the day over there.

    That's a great suggestion, but unfortunately, because of other commitments this week back home, I can only do 2. - dinner Thursday evening.
    PS any suggestions on a dinner location in/near Orlando for us?

    Where are you in Orlando? What is your taste in food? (Bob Evans and Checkers is out). (Sorry Forrest)

    I am up for anything - chicken, pasta, bugers... I was hoping you guys would suggest. Do we need a reservation maybe?

    I am staying at the World Center Marrott near Disney.

    Default Going to have to take a pass

    Dean, I've been instructed by "the little general" (my wife) that she had already made plans for me on Thursday. I'm going to have to opt out and take a pass till the next time you're down "seeking some knowledge".

    In fact next time let us know in advance and we can better prepare. (plus I can perhaps pull rank on the little general) and get together with you.

    Sorry I couldn't make it.

    Forrest, I'm definitely going both days. On Friday, I'm open to what your schedule is. Give me a shout (407) 323-6392 = land line or (407) 444-5533 = cell. Ivor wants to go too, but he is getting his spyder worked on at Central Flarda Power Sports and probably won't get up this way till noon. He said for me to go on ahead and he'll meet at the BRP site.
    On Saturday, Ivor (who is spending the night up this way in Sanford) and Zbunker/Ron and Sylvia want to go over together. We haven't set up a time yet, but my thinking would be sometime around 9:00 to 9:30. Zbunker/Ron will be meeting me at the Racetrak station on SR 46 just east of I-4. We'd love to have you ride with us.

    Bottom line give me a shout.

    Chris
