Guinness Book of World Records

[jeuchler]

I know many of us have traveled a lot this summer already---I just wish I had a much earlier heads-up on this event in Magog, Quebec: Can-Am Spyder fest 2009

July 9, 2009, Spyder Announcements
TAKE PART IN A GUINNESS WORLD RECORD EVENT!
On Saturday, August 1st, 2009 the Spyder Club of Quebec aims to set a new Guinness world record during the first edition of the Can-am Spyder Fest 2009 in Magog, Quebec.Club-Spyder.com and BRP are proud to invite all Spyder owners to the first international Can-Am Spyder roadster festival in North America and to participate in the largest Spyder parade in the world in order to set a new Guinness World Record!

We've been getting by crossing the border (when Barbara doesn't argue with border police) with just license and birth certificate, and still haven't gotten our passports (necessary as of June 1, I believe) so we won't be able to make it (legally).

The lovely bride had the idea that we should have the line of Spyders stretch across the border so we could participate. I'm sure that would set a record for longest INTERNATIONAL parade of motorcycles!

Hope they have better luck than I did. We had the record, I sent in all the required info and never heard back from them after several attempts. It was fun seeing over 500 VTX's in one place. :doorag:

Curiously enough, I planned my vacation at the same time but had not heard about this until last week. I will be arriving in Quebec on August 1st, and may be able to go down there on the 2nd.

Let me know if some of you are going!

The Guinness World Record try is on Saturday August 1st. Just mentioning that in case you missed it in the first post and think arriving on the 2nd will get you in on it. For sure some people will hang around and do the Poker Run on Sunday the 2nd.

I saw this only last week too. Still don't know if it's possible or not. Passport not the issue in my case.

How many did they have at last year's Canadian homecoming - had to be a record at the time.
