    Default First timer for Spyder Fest

    Thinking of heading the spider for this for a couple of days maybe Friday and Saturday just wondering which would be the best days to be there.

    The best days to be there?
    Why; it's ALL of them!

    Seriously; there's stuff going on each day, and it's awful tough to try and plan on missing ANY of it.

    This will be our first 'fest, but looking at the schedule, it looks like Sat might be the best day, since it's the last big day. Check out the site at Spyderfest.com

    Bob,
    This was the first "album" (read Compact Disc) I ever bought. From then on there were no more cassette tapes for me. That is until I got my five speed diesel chevette, that came with an 8 track player in it.

    Just sayin'............
    Three in the garage, and I think I can fit at least one more in.....and then we will have to build another garage.
    The roads in NY are so bad that I am glad we bought a Ryker Rally

    Just sayin'............

    Wait a minute!!!

    You had a DIESEL Chevette?!?

    Couldn't you just walk slower??

    Just kiddin'

    (But they WERE the only car that I'd dared to pick on with my 1979 Ford Fiesta S)

    I still have a couple of 8-track tapes left over from my father's 1975 Oldsmobile Cutlass. I figure they'll eventually be museum ready. Or maybe Antiques Roadshow!

    Wagner Winery makes some nice wines. For those with sweet tastes, the Delaware is very nice.

    Gave the bike a bath this weekend; the wheels were filthy with brake dust. He's a handsome beast again!

    I still need to finish rewiring the TricLed fender lights and I'm toying with installing a set of Lamont's highway pegs. If I don't get to them before the trip I'll probably get them installed at SF. I'm not totally convinced I want a set yet.

    Can't possibly get away. Our production numbers are going through the roof and it is all hands on deck. I am working approximately 55 hours a week. The good news is that it is extra money in the bank will pay for the gas in Brenda's new (to us) spyder. I ordered a passenger backrest today, worth every penny. Have fun, take lots of pictures, and make lots of safe miles.

    Just sayin'............

    I went out for a ride last night and had an epiphany and connected several of the curviest roads in my area. I will have to show you around.
