Will be in the area....but not sure if the bikes will arrive before then. Cuba is one of the dealers that I wanted to check out anyway.

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.

When I found out that all events will be at the Rock, 35 miles from the host hotels, and the wrong direction from the Ozark ryding, I lost my desire to go. Then my wife broke her ankle so I had to cancel my reservations. I will be going to Spyders in the Ozarks instead. I wish someone would do one in Branson.

I am greatful for all the years that we had Spyderfest, it was a fun time for me and my wife. we enjoyed meeting so many people and we have made many, many friends because of Spyderfest. Many events that you have gone to or are going to are a direct cause of Spyderfest, they were the beginning of the Spyder Fever.
Remember the fun you had and the friends you made. be positive. An event of this size is an enormous undertaking, until you have tried to set one up, don't even think about complaining about this one, it was a great event for a lot of people for 10 straight years.
I for one will miss it and the camaraderie that cane along with it.
I want to thank Pitbull Power Sports , Len and Vanessa and all the MOGANG members who put their heart into this for all of us.

Absolutely Cruzr Joe! We enjoyed meeting you and your wife over the years too. Enjoyed our visit and lunch at the same table last year in Bolivar. Hope you both are doing well. Will miss you but keep safe and alive on the forum...please! Hope to see you again sometime! Take care!

This was my first as well. I'm glad we got to go, even if only for a short time. Met some great people and learned a lot. I don't know that I would attend another for at least another few years. So much riding and so little time to get it all in. If the venue were closer to home, this could be an annual event for us.

We attended Spyderfest last year for the first time and came home saying that we much prefer SpyderQuest in NY each September!! Fewer people, a beautiful area to ryde, fun events! Glad we got to one Spyderfest just to say we did, but wouldn't have gone back.
Looking forward to this years SpyderQuest!!!

I think the demise was when they went to two different locations. I really enjoyed it when everything was at the fair ground every one was mixing with everyone else
Just bought my Ryker so I am a "neewby" for sure!
Seems to me that a National Spyderfest is not going to last due to distances involved - maybe 4 or 6 regional Spyderfest's are the solution in the future.

Ditto! It was nice to see the constant flow of Spyders buzzing around town back and froth to the fairgrounds....that was just part of the event actually, just seeing all of the Spyders cruising around town.

CruzrJoe is absolutely right! I will miss this event and seeing all of my friends there. I have such great memories from the 9 years that I attended and I want to thank Len and Vanessa and the MOGang for all of their hardwork and dedication, putting on an event of this size is a huge amount of work and is a pretty thankless job as has been made apparent from many of the replies in this thread.
