• 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.

Thank you all very much for participating, and looking forward to seeing you at an event - or on the road. :2thumbs:

Holy Cr*p, Not doing SPYDERFEST...:opps: :mad: :opps: :mad: :banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:...............just sayin.......Mike
 
SERIOUSLY

Not going to Spyderfest? :lecturef_smilie: Wow.:yikes:.shocked.nojoke..are you kidding me BRP?....hoping that since they have "always" been at Spyderfest that BRP considers it a must do and therefore didn't list as an Owner's Event...BRP please clarify? :dontknow::dontknow:
 
Gee, not one event within 1000 miles of Houston. Not one in the southern states.

Its pretty obvious they did not go by the votes and comments at the posted facebook site. Oh well. Its their money.
 
Thanks for posting the events. I note that the events are spread around a bit. I like that as it gives some an opportunity to go to an event without having to cross the whole country.

With only seven events, it is going to be difficult to please all. If you do this next year, my only suggestion is move events around a bit.

Am guessing Spyderfest was not included because they have that one pretty much on the money.

EDIT: I note that BRPcare posted below that they will be at Spyderfest with support for the event, even though they are not officially listed.

Seriously BRP? Not supporting Spyderfest the biggest spyder gathering in the US? I would REALLY like to know and try to understand your reasoning. Does not make sense. People come from all over the US and represent a number of countries just to mingle with fellow spyderryders, Demo spyders, buy product, and enjoy the area. Makes NO sense to me:banghead:
 
BRP Care? I don't think so! Let's just put the word "doesn't" in the middle of that.
MOGANG was denied funding for putting on SF 2015. Now, we 'donate' our free time, use up many days of vacation from work, spend some of 'our' own money to do this and bring in many new prospective owners for BRP.
In return we asked for a little monetary help. I am seriously disappointed with BRP in their lack of care. After all, it's only the largest Spyder event in the world. Last year we had 46 states, Canada, Mexico, Australia, the United Kingdom and this year, Costa Rica for the first time.
Are you reading these posts BRP decision maker? I hope so, because you are going to be bombarded (pun intended) with a lot of bad press from your loyal owners.

will there be an event contest every year.....so the BRP $$$$$ travels around to help different events

Congrats to the winners

Can-am spyder facebook made us believe the winners would be by the number of post in favor of an event....guess not...

I don't have any insight to any of this so, don't take this as gospel. Spyderfest is a well established, probably the most established event we have. They may have chosen the others, to help get the others some more support. Not that Len and MoGang doesn't need/want/deserve the help. At least this is my thinking and I am probably wrong.:D
 
Folks, ​BRP is already remaining involved with Spyderfest - obviously one of the largest events of its kind in the U.S. BRP will still be present this year at Spyderfest with, among other things, the demo truck and BRP staff on hand to support. With this new program, we wanted to support additional events in as many parts of the country as possible so as to reach more Spyder riders. ​
 
Let's compare

First Spyderfest I went to was in Cuba, MO..2011. They had a couple demo trucks...Spyders to demo around a few cones in Cowtown parking lot. OK representation but sure not something that had myself or others say wow BRP really is wanting to promote Spyders.:thumbup:
Fast forward to Spyderfest 2014 (now remember BRP has been at every Spyderfest) BRP rolls in treating this event as the premier event it is. note: Spyderfest attracts more Spyder owners and potential owners than any other event, including Owner's Events.:thumbup:
Yep BRP came in like Rock Stars. dominated Vendor Village inside and out. Did they profit? I don't know because I'm not privy to their profit/loss statements. BUT I'm here to tell you they were incredibly busy both inside and outside. 2-3 registers with lines checking people out. Say Ka-Ching.. :thumbup:

I have been telling new Spyder owners how BRP rolls into Spyderfest...sounding alot like BRP has decided to go back to Cuba,Mo presence. :yikes::( Sounds to me like BRP is not :joke:. Excuse me BRP but Pitbull Powersports and Spyderfest in Springfield, MO have created a following as well as put SPYDERS on the map...literally internationally and you (whoever these folks are in marketing) make this decision...Totally beyond my comprehension..explain away I'd sure like to see how you explain IT..:dontknow:
