Daytona Bikeweek March 7th-16th 2015.

Thanks Ivor, for those who don't normally come to Daytona or have never been it is one that you should try and make. Daytona has become a favorite of mine, the weather is perfect this time of the year, the beach ride and plenty of bike and event stuff to do or simply out for a nice ride and there is plenty of nice rides around this area. We usually do a traditional night ride through Tomoka park that ends up in a very secluded section of a beach north of Daytona where you can gaze at the stars with the beach in the background. Spectacular ride with good fellowship makes Daytona a memorable event.

For those coming from the north or northeast you might want to consider the Autotrain which will bring you from Lorton, Va to Sanford, FL and that's just 30 miles away from Daytona. Drive the Spyder to the station and board the train, eat, sleep and relax and in the morning you'll pull in the station ready to ride.

Anyway enough of me rambling on, if anyone has any questions please feel free to contact me, Ivor thanks for booking the rooms. I know it is tough nowadays to get a descent room for these high profile events. This hotel is nice because it is away from all the noise and there is good restaurants within minutes without the 2 hr wait. Hope to see many of you there.

I very much doubt that I have never heard of anyone doing that.All the vendors are interested in selling.Big vendors like Kuryakin who do installs for stuff you buy there and charge you might do it if were their product.

what accessories do you have ? We are headed to DB for Destination Spyder in Edgewater and I know they have vendors there that should install what ever you bought..their website says they do tire installs and oil changes they should be able to help you or you may even find the vendor you bought stuff from...

The problem with the autotrain, from Lorton, VA to Sanford, FL will cost you and your bike approximately $600 round trip. Ouch!

I dont do accessories I merely contract the hotel for Spyderlovers for the the past few years and go as well to enjoy bikeweek to enjoy it.There are dozens of good Spyder vendors advertising on this forum.call them or go to their websites and see if they are showing.You can then visit the vendors who are at bikeweek.There are literally hundred of Vendors all over Daytona selling every conceivable thing.
As far as Destination Spyder is concerned i have been there a few times.I know they do Laser alignments to the Spyder as well as have a barbecue and a few vendors there..I have never seen them do oil changes or tire changes and did not know they even did this so fcourse they must if they say so but you can go to any good Spyder dealer for this.
As far as the Country Inn &Suites is concerned the biggest collection of Spyders which is most of the rooms in the hotel are staying there and who will venture out all over Daytona looking at various things.You will see many Spyders all over Daytona as their are literally hundreds of Spyder owners who live locally. Owners Appreciation day the last Saturday of Bikeweek when most Spyder Owners attend at the BRP stand.

LAST CALL FOR SPYDERLOVERS GROUP ROOMS

Lamonster announced 2 weeks ago that Lamonster Garage is playing a big part in the launch of the 2015 product line for BRP.It starts at the dealer meeting Sept 23rd and the a big showing at Daytona where Spyderlovers members will be guests of honor.
Lamont wants as many of us as possible to show up for this event so lets support him.
I have the Country Inn &Suites,Port Orange (Daytona)contracted for Spyderlovers at$164.00 per room per nt for the duration of Bikeweek.This will be the 4th time we are using this hotel for Spyderlovers.The price is only $5.00 higher than the last bikeweek held last March.Last bikeweek it was full of Spyderlovers and everybody loved the hotel.There is plenty of parking for both Spyders and trailers and this hotel is a good meeting place for Spyderlovers in the evenings.
You may book as little as one night during the entire bikeweek.BRP have always in the past held Owners Appreciation Day the last Saturday of the event which would be Sat14th March.Most Spyderlovers book Thursday to the Sunday which in 2015 is march 12th -15th 3nts.
To book call the hotel 386-760-0101 and quote the Sunbird Spyder group to secure this rate.The rate is approx $90.00 per nt cheaper than the rack rate so is a very fair deal for bikeweek.
Bikeweek is a lot of fun.We go out in groups for dinner as well as rydes so lets make this a record breaking amount of Spyderlovers to show up and support lamonster Garage for this exciting event and participation of the showing of the 2015 Spyders.:yes::clap::yes::clap::yes::clap:

The hotel yesterday called and requested we release any rooms left for Bikeweek as bikers from all over are trying to book at full rates.I agreed to keep 10 rooms for 1 more week for the last weekend Thursday,Fri&Sat.We have the most Spyders ever booked for this Bikeweek so if you haven't already call the hotel and reserve at the discounted rate.Quote Sunbird Spyder Group.
For all other dates we have released Ou inventory but should you want another date call the hotel quoting Sunbird Spyder group and should a room be available they will give it to you at the rate.

 

[Ivorspyder]

The first weekend of Bikeweek is sold out.
For the 2nd weekend Thurs to Sunday there are a 3 rooms available until Mon when if not booked will revert back to the hotel as they have a waiting list
Should you still want to join us Call The Country Inn&Suites quoting The Sunbird Spyder Group.386-760-3101

I read that the Saturday Owner's event at Daytona required registration. I can't find anywhere on BRP or Facebook to do so.

Can anyone provide a direct link to the registration site?

or second.

 

[Ivorspyder]

You get to ride the flat part of the track with many many others.its fun though.

 

[moe113097]

i was hoping for the high bank turns but should be fun regardless

 

[Ivorspyder]

Methinks your Nanny would come on and you would fall off.Those banks are a lot steeper than you think.

I decided to make Bikeweek this year. However, I wiil be on my Harley Road King. The main reason for making the trip will be to test ride a Spyder and learn as much as possible about the Can Am trikes. I want to ride an RT and the new F3. If things go well I plan to buy a new Spyder upon my return home. I am trailering from NE Ohio and will be staying in Palatka. (3/8 thru 3/15) I would very much like to meet up with some forum members. Again, I want to learn as much as possible about Spyders so I can I finalize my purchase. I am leaning towards the F3 but haven't totally ruled out an RT yet. Hope to see you there!
