• 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.

Well it was bound to happen I rolled the mower on my driveway----it was going backwards down hill and I hit the breaks cut the wheels hard to the left and over she went. Didn't get hurt at all.
I am going to see if there is a DPS recall that I can blame this on.----- Since I had to help with our annual Sturmfest gathering I could not go to Branson with people I really like. The lawn has been deliberately growing even before Spyders in the Smokies so I was asked at breakfast
"now that your home and rested when are you going to mow"
TO DAY SINCE I COULDN'T GO TO BRANSON----then this happened and the new Husqvarna is broke.
I have been wrongly accused of having this accident because I didn't get to go to Branson.---I have had a traumatic experience that will probably leave me with PTSD for years to come. I therefore will not be able to mow.
My advice to all get the neighbor kid to mow.
Beautiful day today so I am off for a ride as the lawn continues to grow.
Hope you can ride where you are.
 
If I were you, I'd replace it with one of those Kubotas with a roll cage.....and maybe some training wheels! :D
 
Glad you are okay Gene -- that's why I pay someone to cut my grass. That way I can ryde the spyder on weekends. :D
 
Glad you have no injuries......:clap:..........you were missed at Branson! We had a great time and it probably would have been cheaper for you if you went with the rest of us!!
 
mower

At least the spyder has a REVERSE!!! :roflblack: and mirrors. maybe you should try mirrors on your mower. Better yet get the neighbor kid!!! I call it a RENT A KID!!!;):yes:
 
off to one side

Glad you have no injuries......:clap:..........you were missed at Branson! We had a great time and it probably would have been cheaper for you if you went with the rest of us!!
Hey Jim this is way off to one side but did you see the post for floor boards for sale and go to that link that is with the note??? Seems they have boards for back pegs too. I just looked at it and it looks like you could get those fairly easy. ThreeFeet here. ( ex cabin mate)
 
Wow Gene I'm glad you are Ok. You were missed and we had a great time. Stories and pictures will start after we all get some rest.
 
I am glad that you are alright and didn't get hurt. :2thumbs:


Did you do that on purpose, to get out of your chores?
Or is it that you were so mad that you couldn't join us in Branson?

Probably wasn't the DPS. It was either a VSS or PBR! :roflblack:
 
You are right BumbleBee, probably PBR and so early in the day too! Shame on you Gene, get your priorities in order, pay a kid and to on the ride next time.

Gee Gene - glad you're okay but wish you hadn't posted the part about not mowing and riding instead. Our yard has no steep hills but now that you've explained the situation, I think David might be out trying to roll our mower to ensure more riding time!
 
Man. I am sure glad you didn't get hurt. That could have been bad! That must have been a heck of a hill! I hope the mower isn't terminal; it looks like a nice machine, even upside down.
 
That's what happens when you disable the nanny :lecturef_smilie:

I know; I tried!! I'll PM ya the story if ya want to hear it! It's kinda long, kind of funny amd almost tragic! But I digress; We are talking about a rolled mower here!!
 
Gene, I hope you wear a helmet and full gear when you mow.

Seriously, I don't want my wife to see this thread because you've given me a real good idea.
