2009 Fleet Changes

With new bike pictures and specs being released weekly and the chance to see them in the flesh at the NEC it’s time to make some changes.  All being well Spyder Club will take delivery of a KTM 990 Adventure and an RC8 in January.  February will see the arrival of Ducati’s 1198S and Triumph’s amazing Street Triple R.

To coincide with the start of the 2009 track season Spyder Club will have available to its members a Yamaha R6 track bike; with rave reviews about its performance on track it should prove a good day’s entertainment.  To complete the first of the 2009 bike changes we will be looking forward to receiving the much hyped RSV4 Factory, there is yet to be an official order list but we have been told we should have the bike by April.

Further fleet changes will be made throughout the year which will include Ducati’s new Streetfighter voted the most beautiful bike at this month’s Milan show.  More information regarding the workings of track bike use will be released shortly.

Having had an encouraging first season despite the appalling weather, Spyder Club has gone with popular demand and for 2009 members will be able to pick-up and drop off bikes in the south.  Located just off the M4 junction 8/9 and 10 minutes away from Maidenhead train station with fast trains from London, the new base in Maidenhead will allow motorcyclists in the south easier access to the Spyder Club fleet.

Spyder Club are currently looking after an iconic Ducati 916.  With the possibility of this being part of the fleet we are looking forward to the reaction it brings.  Let us know what you think, info@spyderclub.co.uk

Seeing Niall Mackenzie on Spyder Club’s Benelli Cafe Racer on the ride in from Mallory to Donington Park on the Day of Champions was a real honour.  Riding at the front of the column with Niall, Steve Plater and the owners of Donington Park and Norton Racing was a great experience and will almost certainly be the highlight of our first year.  Another plus was Niall’s reaction to the bike, ‘not only does it look beautiful but it goes and handles very well too’.  Praise indeed from such an accomplished racer.
