• 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.

This is the final Itinerary for Spyderquest. We had to make a switch to the ride days, so please be aware of these important changes. Tickets for the Whiteface ride, Ft Ticonderoga ride and the Dinner cruise, will be in your registration packet and must be on your person when these events take place. The Dinner Cruise ticket is extremely important because your ticket can not be reprinted if you lose it.

Time: Registration opens at 2pm


Please wear your name tag located in your registration packet during this opening event. This will get you the BBQ and a bingo card later in the day. Your Spyderlovers handle (if you have one) will also be printed on the name tag to make it easier breaking the ice talking with old friends you may have never met.

BBQ will be served from 3pm-6pm We have decided to serve this BBQ as an eat when you're hungry, and will be cooking in small batches so nobody will be standing in a long line. This way will also be easier for our small staff to cook. Please feel free to use the parks amenities during this time, but please be back at the pavilion by 6pm.

6PM We will be gearing up to give away thousands of dollars in prizes during Farkle bingo. With every paid registration you will receive a bingo card for a chance to win these amazing prizes. If you want to increase your chances of winning, extra cards will be available for purchase. We will also be doing a 50/50 drawing for your chance to win cash.

Yes we will !!!!!!!


We will have ROLO the new laser alignment there as well as Weboards. Please make an appointment with these vendors. :thumbup:



IT’S A GO !!!!!

Sept 18[SUP]th[/SUP] ROLO Guys drive into LG Wednesday Night staying at Studio Hotel


Sept 19[SUP]th[/SUP] Thursday alignments will begin 9am @ Studio Motel please try to make appointments. We will have 2 technicians available with 2 separate laser systems, we will run alignments until dark (we want to set up at the hotel as it is close to RV park and the riders can just scoot over to get alignments done BEFORE or after check in..And also between bites of BBQ, per the owner of Studio Motels there will be NO signage we will just be under our 10 X 10 tent so the riders will have to look for us. Alignments take 30 minutes to 1 hour depending on severity.ROLO boys will spend that night at Studio Hotel also.


Sept 20[SUP]th[/SUP]Laser alignments will be set up at 8 am @ Progressive Motorsports and will continue thru the day. Please try to make appointments. We will have 2 technicians available with 2 separate laser systems; we will run alignments until dark.


Sept 21[SUP]st[/SUP]that is a busy day for Spyder Riders we will either try to catch a few leftover alignments at Studio hotel or setup at Progressive but they close at 2
So the schedule is subject to change but at this writing it is my best guess .

Payment of cash is preferred !!! AS we are not using any parts it is just labor only…..no sales tax needs to be collected
If need be we except credit card payments you will have to call Kristal @ 386-427-8522 she will be processing the CC’s in Florida and can mail you the receipt. Cash price $100 …credit card price $105.00

Appointments are best if set up with Kristal as the boys will have their hands full of work so call 386-427-8522 or E mail [email protected] the sooner the better

Talked with my wife last night and I offered to trailer up there so she could go. No way she's riding on the ST after the deer strike but she's willing to hangout on the Spyder when we get there. Not the best option but it's a BIG step forward to getting her back in the wind. See you guys there. :doorag:
