My wife and I would love to attend but for it would have to be early September. Harvest gets in the way for us any later.

The first weekend of October has been the Kentucky Lake/Barkely Lake Ryde...A lot of people from Southern Mo. and Southern Illinois have gone to this great event the past few years..Connie does a fantastic job....Hope it doesn't conflict with this..But,you can't please us all!!...

[chickenhoose]

I agree with cycle lover 63. The land between the lakes ride in Ky. gets better each year, Next year will be number five.

As an educator-September and October are busy times but there are Parent-teacher conferences around the end of October but that would be pushing it later then you probably would want to do. We already take off and use our Personal Days' for Spyderfest but this sounds GREAT and we personally would LOVE the FELLOWSHIP.

I can retire in about 3 years, then again, ha, ha, will any of us truly be able to retire anymore? Think our older generations have been blessed to be able to do that in today's society and times fear a lot of us will continue to have to work to pay bills and put food on the table. *sigh*

Anyway--keep us all posted as this is a GREAT idea and like I said we both would love to participate and enjoy the scenes and most of all the FELLOWSHIP.

Thanks!

Late September or early October sounds great! Happy to help Lamont if you need anything.

[Shewhoprays]

Either month is beautiful for riding. If you make it too late in Oct. you will have the cold to deal with. Food and riding should be the emphasis. Super roads great fellowship.

[Ex-Rocket]

I'm in no matter when you have it. I just think the 3 day event would work out better and have more people to come to it. That part of Missouri and Arkansas is really great motorcycle riding area. Hope to see this become a reality. I always like to look at other Spyders to see what they have done to their bikes.

I'm going to try and have a date nailed down this week so you can make plans.

Not sure if this would impact your decision, but SpyderQuest in NY is in September.

Okay I'm thinking
Sept 15-17 or
Sept 22-24

Both these date fall after Spyderquest (Sept. 7-10) and before Red Rock Spyder Rally (Sept. 27-30)

[CMA Cowboy]

Either date in September would work for us. We enjoyed the fellowship of this years gathering and adding good barbeque would make it so much better. Making good solid friendships is good for the heart and soul. Ryding spyders just makes it better.

[james danny]

How about August is anything going out that month?

My vote would be for the Sept 22-24.

I would like to see 3 days--Thursday, Friday and Saturday and breakup on Sunday. Also the 3rd or 4th week in September as in October it seems to rain more and get a little colder. Run it very informal like the 1800 gathering in the fall each year out of Harrison, Arkansas. Have a Friday or Saturday night BBQ where everyone gets together at the host hotel--the rest of the time they are on their own.

[old Timer]

Suggestion,

You could call it Lamont's Un Rally or Lamont's Un Rally and BBQ.

Sounds like fun.

[viperryder]

A three day event would be best, if possible. With people traveling a great distance, this would be more to their liking. Thanks for trying to come up with new venues.

Be a heck of a ride from Morgantown West Virginia, but if it's at all possible Linda and I will be there. In 42 years together we've never had a vacation. I think this would be a good one to take. Providing my 2012 RTS doesn't give up the ghost between now and then. I think 3 days would be nice. Make it worth while for folks that have a long distance ride to get there. Reasonable hotel/motel rates would be a big plus to.

I think Spyders In the Ozarks works well for this event and I have the url for that now. I'm waiting on some artwork to start building the page. Nothing fancy just info need. Stay tuned.

Your 2012 was one of the best years for the RT, I'm sure it will have no problem making the trip and there's lots to see and do here for sure.

That's what it all about for this event, and good riding.

That doesn't work for me with Sturgis and another event I plan on going to.

[Empty Pockets]

Spyder Palooza in Farmington Missouri is September 15-17th. Your update on your original post mentioned October. If you schedule it the weekend before or after the October NASCAR race in Kansas City may be able to draw some Spyder folks that would be in the area for that

[Freezedryman]

Set it up and let it be known! The Ozarks are the place to be in the fall an and some of us moved her from UP-NORTH to ride the best roads in the nation. I for one just recently switched to a RT-s from 60 years of everything on two wheels and hope top see a get together no matter what the dates.
Lamont if you need any help with this PM me

[quasi]

wife said she'd love to see the area and maybe see a show at Branson. so, I have my route all planned out. from Morgantown WV, I-79 south to I-64 west to I-69 to US RT-60 west to Springfield. 900 miles = 2 day ride, ( I think).
