SpyderLovers Banner Run!

Well guys it's time to get this thing moving.

Some of you have no idea what this is about so you can get caught up here. http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/s...ead.php?t=8875

The idea was to ride my Spyder to Daytona and get a bunch of folks to sign it there and hand it off to someone on the last Saturday and have it start it's run around North America. Well my Spyder didn't get done in time as some of you have read and I wound up having to trailer out to Daytona. While I was there I got real sick and didn't get a chance to hand it off like I wanted to.

So now I'm feeling much better and I need to get this thing moving. I had a member that wanted it in Texas for some event the next couple of weeks but I'm not sure we can pull that off or not. I'm willing to get it heading west or anywhere else this weekend if the weather holds out.

Bottom line is this will be a sticky post that you can go to to see where the SpyderLovers Banner (SLB) is and to be a part of this great SpyderLovers journey across North America. Make sure to take lot's of pics.

So who want's to take it from here. I'm in East Tn and can take it 3 hours or so to the next SpyderLover.

Hey Lamont, if you can get it headed north, I will try to meet someone to pick it up in Ohio maybe and take it through Ontario to Niagara Falls and hand it off to jeuchler who can then get it up to the New England States. We could cover a lot of ground in a short time and then start heading it back out west from there. Just and idea, let me know what needs to be done.

I could take it to Kentucky or Virgina if we can get someone to pick it from there.

I would offer to meet you in Cincinatti, OH (I buy dinner) or Lexington, KY (you buy dinner ) but it would be probably the following weekend and I'm guessing it needs to get moving before then. Also, it would probably sit at my place for a week or two until we hooked up with Director, Jeuchler, Frleo and others in Niagara Falls.

Hey Lamont!

I'm Back in Ky about to head north to NY/VT. I'd be happy to hook up and take it, but would need to do this weekend or (maybe Monday).

Let me know!

Man, that thing is huge...I'm gonna have to rethink that Givi storage system and get, maybe, a 12-foot long trailer if I'm gonna haul that banner around.

Don't worry, Lamont, we'll get this started...'though I bet if we trace the route it finally takes it's gonna look like a knotted up ball of yarn!

Computerize it. Attach a flash drive to the banner and people can document it on a text file of the date location and name of the ryder.

Just a thought.

I think this would work to get it going North. Where are you now and maybe we could figure out a half way point.

Mike and Lamont

Keep me posted on this possibility.

(I'm on the MA.NY/VT border.)

If it goes that way, I could get it to Deb & Brian (to go west) or Bruce (to go more north-er) next month our Fall trip in April.

That would be cool.

I could get it to one of the ryders in the Toronto area shortly after Deb and Brian's Niagara Falls gathering, if you would like. I will be going further north than that, but not until May 22 for the Ottawa marathon, which is kind of a long time to hang onto the banner. Either way, I'm game, and happy to help out.

If this is the right place it looks like it's about 190 miles from me so tell me where you want to meet Bro.

[mike3069]

That's it! How about in Jenkins?

[Lamonster]

That's it! How about in Jenkins?

Sounds good. That's about a two hour ride one way. How about we meet for lunch?

[mike3069]

OK, see you there tommorow.

[Lamonster]

OK, see you there tommorow.

Looks like I have at least two more riders going to make the trip. Any more?

[dltang]

Hey Mike,
I looked at the map where you and Lamont are meeting for the banner exhange. Next weekend could you drop meet in Cinci or Dayton? or are you heading toward VT right away. If you are headed toward VT then as Jeuchler suggested, if you could get it to him, he can take it to Niagara Falls. From there, we will have Director take it through Toronto and London and then Brian and I could pick it up from him on our way back to MI. Once we get in Michigan we can take it to the west side of the state to Scotty for Photos and then take it south to some of our Ohio or Indiana riders for the next leg. Just keep me informed, I definitely want to be part of this banner run.

[LDFIREWORKS]

notice the tall good-looking guy on the extreme right , he is the best looking spyder rider in the spyder-lovers club he makes the whole pic worth it do you agree.................

[mike3069]

After I meet w/ Lamonster on Sat. I return to Lovely, KY for about 3 days, then go north to Saratoga Springs for the summer work season. I will be glad to meet up w/ Jeuchler somewhere and pass it along.

What say, jeuchler?

Deb, it may be a problem for me to get the banner to Toronto and back to you that quickly. I need to go right back to London from Niagara Falls (opposite direction from Toronto) on Saturday, April 18. We can talk about it then, and look at some options.
It occurs to me that there are some Toronto-area riders on this forum, so we may be able to hand it directly over to one of them, if any of them are planning to come to the Falls, or I could rendezvous with one of them in the Hamilton area, have them sign the banner there, then take it home and return it to you and Brian on the homeward leg of your trip.

If it should go to into Wisconsin/Minnesota or Indiana/Illinois keep us in mind over in Iowa....We could get it into Minnesota or Nebraska

Righto - check out the chickie in the middle! Where were you on the 2nd Saturday ride? We had a great ride - did the loop had a wonderful lunch at Manny's.

[retread]

Hey, Deb, when you leave Niagara, go up to the Thousand Islands, then 401 to Toronto, if you've got time, it's a great ryde. I 90 to I 81 to Alexandria Bay, cross the bridge and head west on 401.

[Roaddog2]

Mike- are you heading up 87 into Saratoga? I'll bet Roaddog or Smylinacha can get it up to Jeuchler after a swing through CT......

Or I can transport it on a Harley.....LOL

That can definitly be done 203-218-2442
