    Default Michigan SpyderLovers Meet & Greet (Let get us a chapter started)

    We are trying to get a SpyderLovers Michigan Chapter started, and are therefore having a meet & greet on Saturday August 20th. in Vestaburg, Michigan. We are going to meet at 11:30am, and have a buffet style lunch at noon.
    After lunch we will have a ride for those who would like to see some of the countryside around this neck of the woods.
    We are meeting up at: Maxfields Restaurant
    11228 Wyman Rd.
    Blanchard, MI 49310
    We will meet there, like I said at 11:30, and chat outside a bit, and that will allow some a little extra time in case they are running a little late, before we eat at noon. We would like to have a great turnout for this. Future meetings will be held at different locations as to accomodate everyone. There is currently (according to the SpyderLovers.com members list) about 236 of us in Michigan that have and ride Spyders. Well, why don't we see just how many we can get together on the 20th. This is a great opportunity to get all together as a community of Spyder enthusiasts, and enjoy each others company, and plan group rides,etc.
    I went through the membership list for Michigan, and compiled all the members that listed their city, and placed it as pins on a map, just so you could see who else is near you that also loves to ride. This is only the members that listed where they live, so this is less than half of our state membership. If you read this thread, spread the info on this date to others that you know. We want a spectacular turn out, so it all depends on you.
    We would also like to order some SpyderLovers Michigan Chapter tee shirts. The design is awsome, and once you see them, I am sure you will want at least one, maybe two. Problem is that we need at least 26 committed
    people to order, before they will offer to print them, so think about it. Tom (2ndChildhood) has the design already made up and ready to go, and I will post the link to the picture here.

    If you could, please everone that is going to attend on the 20th, RSVP to this thread, with your forum handle and name, and how many. Please try to make every effort to attend. I am sure you will have fun.

    Awesome. Having been part of this group in 2010-11 we look forward to helping make this a success. It was a lot of fun. Take a look at old threads in the MI forum titled 3 Great Lakes in 3 Great Days.

    Count us in on the 20th for two.

    We have been to Maxfields...great food!

    I will start a new thread on T-shirt orders. I will put on the new thread previous people that wanted a T-shirt. If we get 26 orders the company will post the Michigan T-shirt on there web site, then you can go to the website and place your order.

    Planning on being there with my wife, the only thing that would change it is if my daughter goes into labor. I will keep you posted so you have a correct count.

    Looking forward to meeting everyone!!!

    Default YAY

    Very happy to see that someone is trying to get our group together. We are unable to make it that day due to our one and only bike vacation this year. Riding to Caseville for the Cheeseburger Festival. We won't be far but on Saturday we have planned to see the sand castle display. I will post this information in the Michigan Girls on Spyders page a few who had not heard. I will posted the information hopefully they will find this. We are located in Allen Park will look forward to updates. Next year plans on being our year to ride, mostly weekends but ride we will.

    Hi there!!
    First thank you for attempting to revive the Michigan Chapter
    I saw this posted on the site, I did not receive an email or personal message/notification. I'm glad I check occassionally
    Been a member since the beginning and I am from Oscoda, MI., Iosco County, not from Oscoda County...lol
    And regretfully I will be up in the UP on the 20th on the bikes. I hope there will be more events to possibly attend, as I look forward to meeting/seeing folks again.
    Thanks again.....ride safe!
