I Learned Something Today...

[KAPike]

I had an invitation to see my $60,000 Shelby being built and I refused, why would I want to see a $20,000 Spyder being built? I'm out.

No really!

Then you're really not going to enjoy a trip to Mackinaw Island where people stand for hours watching them make their famous fudge...LOL

[SpyderAnn01]

There won't be any spyders in production but there is a really nice spyder rally close by in Magog Québec July 11th to 13th. I went in 2012 and had a great at time Lamont and Reggie was up there. Didn't go last year due to a back injury but plan to go this year.

Regarding Tours; I've got several folks that I can contact... If it's not something for the coming Months, we can always push the timeframe to where folks have a chance to make some plans for it...

I'm semi-retired so I can take whatever time I want so the "day early" is no problem for me either. You know a good place to stay up there. I imagine lodging might be tight.

This is where we booked for 2 nights, not luxurious but reviews were good!

An invasion of Canada?
Let's start making some plans!

You are welcome in Quebec. And please, spend a lot of money when you will be in Valcourt. lol...

The Eastern Townships area are very beautiful in summer time. When date will be known, I will ride from Quebec City to Valcourt to meet with some Spyderlovers member.

For those who plans to came in Valcourt, please note the following informations from the Canadian Border Service Agency:
