Does anybody know when and where Spyderfest 2013?
-
There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

April 24-28 is the planned date. Exact dates and location will be determined by the end of this year. We start our panning meetings in November

This maybe a stupid question, but where is Ladybug Camp Ground?

At the exit ramp State Hwy F off I-44 to Cowtown heading West, you go past the turn off road to Cowtown, West Outer Road. The entrance to Lady Bug Campground will be on your right less than a 1/4 mile.
There are lot of roads in that area of the country that have letters instead of names.
Hope that helps?

If you "google " Cuba, MO you will see that there are several motels that most try to stay at each year. It's getting more and more difficult to book a room in them as the Spyderfest grows each year and many plan well in advance. For this year's (2012 Spyderfest) I believe Super 8 in Cuba gave Spyderfest discounts as did some of the others - Wagon Wheel, etc. All the chain motels are at an intersection where you hop on the highway and Cowtown, the host cycle center, is just a short ways down the road from this intersection. Gas stations, etc. are all right in the same area. Cuba is a small town so nothing is very far from any particular spot - including a number of great restaurants and coffee houses. The area has lots of two lane hilly roads -some more twisty than others that are great to fun to ride and explore.

From what I saw at the last Spyderfest I'd say the MOGang is still in recovery phase. I believe they have a planning meeting in the next few months to start on SF13.

Cuba Area campgrounds, motels, & resorts
Just for general information-go to www.cubamochamber.com for a list of motels, campgrounds, and resorts. There is a directory. Some resorts have rooms, cabins, and RV hookups. You can also find info on attractions, restaurants, etc.

I know the question on a lot of folks mind is, where's SPYDERFEST 2013!
That being said, I want to thank you all for your patience with us, and assure you this was NOT intentional or a marketing ploy in any way.
We had basically maxed out the Cuba area. Folks were having to ride 30 + miles to get hotels. This meant Spyderlovers were spread out over a 60 mile radius. That was counter to the main purpose of SPYDERFEST and the best part--which is everyone being together. The events are great, but friendships are made when people are hanging out in hotel parking lots--and where most of the best stories originate.
The last three events have been so great and they put a lot of pressure on us to find a place that was country, had hotels, a small home town feel, lots of friendly folks, great riding areas and a place that would accept US! We also needed the support of a dealership.
There has been much discussion with Lamont and several others. We finally found an area that would meet our needs! Nestled between SPRINGFIELD and Branson MO, is a little town that has it all. They have that hometown feel, great riding areas, tons of history and have extended an open invitation for all of us to come and play! Centrally located, OZARK MO will be home to SPYDERFEST 2013 " The New Adventure "
I am also pleased to announce this year, for the first time we will be having our very own full out, DRAG RACING!!! Not performance testing. If cops show up they won't be doing checkpoints, there's a good chance they will be on Spyders. Yes, we have one of the areas only drag race track reserved and ready for action http://www.ozarkracewaypark.com/ . Anyone that wants, will be able to race. We will also have testing and tuning going on before hand. If your not sure you've got what it takes you'll be able to play and find out! There will be several classes, including a turbo class (I think you know why). And of course we will have some "TINY" little trophies. Add in some fireworks and food, and we are all in for a good time!
There will be other events as well and also one of the best vendor villages ever. Vendors we are ready to start taking reservations. We need our mods!
The area itself has plenty of rustic charm and I promise you will not be disappointed. There's plenty to see, plenty to do, and plenty of places to eat, including the famous Lambert's Cafe. Ozark is very accessible but also away from the hustle and bustle of Branson.
As far as lodging is concerned, over 600 rooms are on reserve all within walking distance. If we max those out there are more available in the immediate area. We are expecting a great time and a lot of laughs with you all there. The MoGang has a great adventure planned for you. Some of this year's ride routes will include a trip to Eureka Springs, AR, scenic drives through the Ozark Mountains, and some of the best twisties the Midwest has to offer.
This covers all bases, except for a local sponsoring dealership, and that is probably the biggest news of all for me. Can-am was looking to open a much needed new store in the Springfield Mo area. I was able to partner with a few folks and will be opening my own store, Pitbull POWERSPORTS. The projected opening dated is in February. This was recently finalized and one of the main delays in the Spyderfest announcement.
We will also be partnering with someone you might know, a personal friend and hero of mine, Lamonster. For the first time ever we will be building Lamonster edition Spyders, along with the Spyderfest edition Spyders.
As we start this new year and "The New Adventure", I would like to thank all of you for your support and friendship. This is a big step for me, and exciting to say the least. I hope I'm able to live up to everyone's expectations.
