No doubt this announcement and it's impact on everything Spyder will one day be looked back on as a keystone moment.

One day, we'll all be saying. "Remember when"......

Wishing you all the best

Congrats to you both. I'm sure this will be a success,. From what I have seen, everything you two do is first class. I think this will be a blessing to the Spyder world.

It's a good thing time rolls back tonight... Cause I can't sleep!!!
signing papers on the new land with Lamont and the whole gang present was epic! I can't hardly wait to see this next legacy unfold with all of you supporting us and being there to be part of this. Thank you guys so much, humbling more than anything.

This year we will have vendors space indoors and outdoors to accommodate for any unexpected weather. The main event will take place at the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds. More to come on this. http://www.ozarkempirefair.com/facilities/

So now you know a little about Spyderfest 2014 I'm going to give you some of the details about "The Next Legacy" and what that means. This was Len's name by the way if you love it or hate it.

Len and I have been building a strong relationship for the last 5 years and I love him and his family like they were my own. Len is an incredible young man with more drive and determination than anyone I've ever met. His character is beyond reproach and I am proud to call him my friend and also my partner in a new venture we have a vision for.

We just signed papers for some land that we will be building "The Lamonster Garage" just 11 miles north of the Pit Bull shop. This 10 acre lot is where we will be building all Pit Bulls Spyders for the show room with some of his techs and the Lamonster techs to make sure that your first experience of Spyder ownership is a good one. We'll do custom builds also and have some service work done there. We'll also be a parts warehouse for all things Spyder and will direct ship from the warehouse. We are building an online store on SpyderLovers that you will be able to have a one stop shopping experience.

Our plans are to make The Lamonster Garage a Spyder hub where you can come and just hangout if you like and ride around the area. We're shooting for a Grand Opening at the time of Spyderfest but that may be a little ambitious.

I am more excited about this venture than any other I've done through the years. I had a mobile welding biz for 16 years in San Diego and for the last 14 years I've been working in the motorcycle industry designing parts and running club forums. I just sold that business and was looking to do something I really love with the rest of my life and Spyder and Spyder people is what I love and have a passion for and I can't think of a better person to do this with than Len from Pit Bull. I hope we can be a blessing to you all and serve you well. For sure we will make mistakes and screw up from time to time but we will make it right by all means possible if you just give us the chance. Look for great things in the future of all things Spyder.

Here's a pic of Len showing the GANG the view from the stands. This will be a great place to hold our "games". Nothing like a 1,000+ ppl watching you ride in reverse around a field of cones.



We are standing on mount Olympus. The future site of the new venture.



This will be Lamont's view from the downhill side of the front of the new Lamonster Garage.



This will complete a great triangle of sites for all to see.

Is it my twisted sense of humor or does anyone else find it funny that all this posting is going on while Bob Denman is tucked into bed snoring?

66 posts and we haven't heard from Denman!

Sorry Bob.

Reservations made!!

This announcement just blew my mind. In fact the Better Half and I were talking last night about how much larger the '14 Spyderfest might be and where you would hold it. Certainly, the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds has the room, not only for next year, but for expansion in the future.

But what really blows my mind is The Next Legacy. I've really been concerned about the Pit Bull dealership. Not that it's not the standard by which all others are rated (which it is), but by the fact that Len really underestimated his potential success. I understand he made a huge leap of faith and believe me, I would not have built a mega-center either if I were in his shoes. But the success he has had is starting to be overshadowed by his facility size.

Lamont, I am absolutely delighted you and Len have undertaken this project. Eleven acres allows you to start modestly and then expand as the business climate allows. I also believe, with the exception of manufacturing, Pit Bull, The Next Legacy, and Spyderfest is going to make Springfield the center of the Spyder World. As we know, the customer's experience with their Spyder starts with the dealer and no one builds them better Len and Lamont.

Lamont and Len are two exceptional gentlemen who absolutely set the standard for customer service. I really understand why people come from around North America to buy their Spyders from Len and the partnership with Lamont's Garage can only make things better.

Congratulations, Len and Lamont! This should prove to be a fruitful and beneficial partnership. What a match!

[willey]

just made our reservations.will be our first time.

CONGRADULATIONS May this partnership be rewarding for the two of you and the whole Spyder community! We will be looking forward to the "Grand Opening"!

[Wiredux]

Congratulations Len and Lamont! No one deserves this as much as you too. I look forward to seeing both of you at Spyderfest if not before.

[currin20fan]

WOW!!! What a great adventure for you both. I'm sure we all will be waiting to see what you two come up with in the spyder world. I can't really think of any two people I would like to see work together. Questions, questions, questions.........I guess we all will have to be patient. You know, like Lamont's BBQ, etc. etc. And I just can't imagine Lamont leaving TN.

Good luck you two!

[Mo Lee]

Congrats to both family's! Lamonster Garage sounds like a great idea, I also think the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds is the best and really the only choice for this monster we all call Spyderfest. The fairgrounds host several events every year to include many automotive events and should be large enough to handle Spyderfest for many years to come. One event I like to attend (automotive swap meet) is held in Aug and it takes 4-5 hours just to walk through and glance at the vendors, just to give you an idea of the space available. Lets just hope Ricky was able to negotiate a good rental fee.
