• 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.

Owners Event in Maggie Valley & Vendors?

I know there will not be any vendors at the fairground during the Owners Event and that Maggie Valley has some of it's own rules in place....... but does anyone have a list and location of any vendors that will be setup during the OE (or the BBQ)?

At the last owners event some vendors were setup at the Wheels through Time museum just down the road. Dale Walkster, the owner was very accomadating to the Spyderlovers. The wheels throught time is on the Agenda for thursday and I think BRP has the adminission covered in your owners packet. A great place to visit.
 
The vendor that was setup at Wheels Through Time was shut down by the town officials. I believe that Spyderpops will be at Lamont's BBQ but I don't know who else may be there
 
From what I have heard about past Owner Events, I will never go to one. Go to SpyderFest instead.

I have no earthly idea what you heard, but you could not ask for better riding venues for a get together like this. I can go online and purchase "stuff" from any vendor in the world. However, you won't find too many places that have the beauty and riding accommodations that Maggie Valley has. I mean after all spyders are about riding are they not?

I suppose for some the Spyder is about stuff to buy for it and show to friends to others it's to ride and enjoy friendships. Who's to say who is right? Well in this case the Maggie Valley City Fathers have chosen the later!

We have enjoyed the last two Owners Events. It's always great seeing old Spyder friends and making new ones. The riding in Maggie Valley is great, even if the weather forecast isn't. I'd prefer the Owners Events go to new locations instead of returning to the previous venues, but... It was nice to have group ride routes mapped out (like in Durango) on cards for folks to venture out on their own if they wanted (proof that BRP listens to our comments). Ed (Erags) and I will be in Maggie Valley, staying at Creekwood Farms RV Park...we are looking forward to seeing everyone. :yes::yes:
