• 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.

Ok, so I made that up. BUT, I did ride my Bronze Bomber all day today. Rochester to Binghamton and back again. I was in a suit, sport jacket rolled up neatly in the trunk. What a great day for riding. Temps were in the 70s. Stopped for an iced coffee in Preble (north of Cortland) on the way back home. Chatted with a fellow biker also stopping for refreshment. A few more bikes rolled in. We had a mini rally, lol. It got a little chilly after the sun went down over the Montezuma Refuge (Gorgeous), but made it home shortly after. Great weather and great camaraderie. What a day!

Oh, almost forgot to mention, holiday tunes were playing from a Binghamton FM station. Hilarious... Xmas songs while riding a Spyder in November AND in Upstate NY.
 
Tomorrow's my day

I'm doing a little mini ride tomorrow. Taking the afternoon off and picking the wife up for lunch on the spyder. I won't get as many miles as you did but any riding at this point is bonus riding!

Burlington for " Olive Garden's " endless Pasta bowl -Fettuccini Alfredo, of course .....Mama Mia they really make the best ....and I know how to cook......Mike :yes::yes::yes::yes:
 
Ride all week

Miles don't matter, as long as you get out. The weather this week is incredible. Rain on Friday. Hoping we get at least one more opportunity after this week. Enjoy your day tomorrow!

Go Mike!!! Go Mike!!! Go Mike!!! :thumbup::thumbup::roflblack: I love that area. Had it as part of my territory for several years. Really miss it.
 
Bummer..!!

I'm flying home from PA so no ryding till maybe thursday...:banghead: but as I fly over ya'll I will wave....:roflblack:
 
I plan on riding to work on Thursday. Typical, the best two days of the week and of course I'm on call for Fire/EMS, so that means no riding to work for me. Thursday looks to be nice...after that, it's a crap shoot for Nov in WI.
 
I am thinking...NOT! :roflblack::roflblack: Here is the main highway headed into Anchorage. Black ice base.

Take your Spyder to work WEEK...

Back out on the road again today. Heading down into Finger Lakes Region. Geneva, Elmira and over to Sayre. Trying to take advantage of this incredible weather. If you see a guy in a suit on a :spyder:, that's me! Give a honk!
 
As the owned of Seal Floorboards, my Spyder IS my work and showroom. Everywhere I go, I'm riding 'my work" now going to it!!!:roflblack: Life's good.:bowdown:
 
It was actually warmer in Rochester yesterday than Los Angeles!

Enjoy it in Rochester.... As you know it won't be long until..... :banghead:

Ride to Work WEEK!!!

Rode to work yesterday, took off early for lunch, never came back. Went from Reisterstown, MD to Washington, DC and from there to the UTZ Potato Chip factory in Hanover, PA for lunch and to pickup some potato chips and popcorn during senior day at 15% off. Going to ride today and may repeat the same except going south into Virginia this time somewhere near Richmond for another exciting day of riding and lunch. I am off this Friday when it will be exceptionally warm 78 degrees here in the MD, DC, VA area and will let the cards fall as they may on where to go for Friday.
