    We have reservations starting 29th Tuesday, not sure what day we will leave at this time. I know they suggest saying at host hotel or next to host but I was able to get Best Western on Battlefield for 49.00 a night, indoor pool and free breakfast. I'll drive the 10 miles to the event.

    The Best Western on Battlefield is a nice hotel. I stay there last year for Spyderfest '13, had a great time there. Spend a lot of time in the pool/hot tub I also stay there one night last month when I went down for the Mogang's fall ride.

    Larry what time are you having the alignment done on Friday? I am thinking about going to Bay City on Friday just to visit with other Spyder Riders.

    Also is Mr. Bill and Wife from Canada riding with the group to Spyderfest?
