UPDATED! BRP Demo day in May at Concord Mills Mall Parking lot
Ran into the BRP rep at the Charlotte Bike show this past weekend. They are bringing the tractor trailer of spyders in for a demo weekend at Concord Mills Mall sometime in May. Should know soon what weekend that will be.
I will be there... Would like to make a day of it and grab some grub with any other owners that show up. So put it on your radar. I know several of us showed up last time randomly and helped out.
Here is the date!
CONCORD MILLS MALL May 11 - May 13
8111 CONCORDS MILLS BLVD.

BRP Demo Days
Unless it is May 17th weekend, I am in. We are headed to Myrtle Bike Week that wknd.
This is what BRP needs to get more people aware and more mainstream! They need to send press releases to the local TV stations and ask their reporters to come take test drives ahead of time for video PR.

Hi Dan, Thanks for the heads-up! If I am in town, definitely interested in hanging around a bit. Cheers, Ron

Dan!
I am in. Let me know when you have confirmation on the date

i would love to make it!
i'll have to check on hotel prices and make a weekend of it since attending even for a couple of hours would mean taking a night off work
if it's doable for me though plan on a Durham incursion! LOL and yes i meant incursion not excursion.....
if anyone else from the triangle area wants to play Spyder Parade on the way down though we should totally ryde together.

-
Just got E-mail that they will be in Charleston,SC(Ladson realey)on May 10th,can't wait althought we already have two it should be fun to watrch every one else
-
Just a bit to far for us. Like KipDm, would require a day off work and a motel stay.
-
If there's a day and time set up by someone to meet, we may be able to make it from Cary, NC. Kip, we could ride with you if all works out.

not sure what day you were planning on going down (or if you were going to make it a full weekend).
if i get the time off work (knock on wood) i plan on ryding down Friday after noon (since usually get in from work at about 1AM leaving before 10AM is rough since i can never go right to bed after getting home).
if leaving Friday, May 11 anywhere in the 11AM-2PM range sounds good we could always meet up at Streets of Southpoint Mall (say as close to the fountain at the movie theater as possible?).
i will try to get used to going to bed earlier so that 10AM can become a possibility but no promises
i will update as soon as i find out confirmed personal leave day granted (assuming everything else sounds fine).
-
My days there are Saturday and Sunday.
By the way, the local BRP rep that lives a few miles from my house will be there. Nice guy and very appreciative when the owners show up at these things and mingle with the demo riders.
The two Charlotte dealers should also be there, along with the one up in Albermarle, NC potentially. I really had a great time at the one last year though I missed the other owners as I was late.
I will plan on being there for lunch hour both days. May be able to do dinner if that works better for some of you.

wow 2 dealers in Charlotte? that sounds kewl. should also mean plenty of peeps to ryde with too....

KipDM - I should have my Spyder by then and am in Durham, so might be interested in riding down there with you. My brother lives just south of Charlotte so I'll probably spend some time with him and his family that weekend, but would love to meet some of the Carolina Spyder crew!

Dan, sounds like another great opportunity for a Carolina Spyder Ryder Meet n' Greet. Since you know the area could you/ would you play host?

currently our leave time is up in the air but we should be able to give definitive times by sometime in April (or very early May).
my current hope is to be able to leave in the noon-1PM time range and ryde more leisurely than i do in a car and get to Concord/Concord Mills Mall in the 3-4:45PM range (depends on weather, traffic, and how many pitstops we choose).
this is a very loose time though since i am very flexible timewise and not sure if the other people will be (able to get off work early) or not.

Will do.. Spyder goes in the shop next week... should be out in the next week but there is a suspicion of output shaft issues... So.. I may have to drive there.
Right now... for that Saturday I will host Lunch at the Quaker Steak and Lube across i-85 from the demo lot. I will need rsvp's in another couple of weeks ( I WILL MAKE A SEPARATE post) so that I can arrive early and score the right number of seats.. Maybe we can get BRP there with us.
-
Depending on the date I should be there at least one day, probably Saturday but we'll see. Would be happy to ryde with any others from Hickory area (Duck??) if interested, maybe start a thread in the other NC forum, I never know which one to check now, dunno why they have two for NC.

Haha! Yes, I may do this if I can get all of the work complete on my spyder before then. Got to have new tires all the way around - even with the nanny, the back end almost said hello to the front end when I went around a curve on Hwy 181 a couple of weeks ago!
