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.
To Alaska and Back...

Had dinner with fellow SpyderLovers at the Hill Top Restaurant. Highly recommend the salmon!
Starting from the back, Sam (can-am sam) And Celeste Hillde, Me and Hubby (Jeff), Brad (Draboo) and Pat Nicholson. Its so neat that people who have never met each other can hit it off so well. We are all friends we know well, but haven't met yet. That is the magic of SpyderLovers.
Just want to add that Hubby is the photographer on this road trip. Think he's doing a great job!
Wherever you go there are friendly SpyderLovers waiting. :2thumbs:

Glad to hear you are enjoying some good weather.
The Photographer continues to do a GREAT job! Looking forward to the pics from the Ferry. :2thumbs:
This part of the journey should give you both a chance to stretch your legs.hyea:
Figured Hubby needed some recognition for his photographic skills. The ferry ride will be a nice break.
hyea: Some day, your dreams will come true. Just keep putting it out there.
Glad your enjoying the trip!
Glad you finally got to meet Hubby!
You are on the adventure of a lifetime!!! :clap:

Glad you got to meet Draboo and his wife. We met them on our journey in 2009 in Lynnwood, WA and had a great, though short, visit. Enjoy your journey...it will be one you can relive in years to come. Ride safe, always.
You guys ride in style. We had everything packed, including a laptop, in 2 GIVI saddlebags and the trunk of our 2008 GS SE5!

Draboo and his wife were great! Can-an Sam and his dearly beloved are wonderful people too.
No styling it here. The trailer is full of camping gear and stuff we hope never to use. All the things for daily use is on the bikes.
Thanks for your well wishes.

Bellingham, Washington and on the ferry...
The ferry leaves at 6:00 p.m., we have to be there at 3:00. Had a little extra time.
Fishing boats in the harbor.
At the Port of Bellingham, met up with Bill Shane (1stfan).
Spydee in the staging area.
The maw of the Malaspina.
A side view of the Malaspina.
This is where we will be for the next three days on our way up to Haines, Alaska. Going to have a couple days R & R. Bad news is, there is no cell service so will have to save up all our pictures till we are up in Alaska.
Thank you all for such wonderful support! Hoping to get some pictures of Orca for Y'all...

+1 And be wary of riding on the gravel in general. Two friends of mine, brothers, did an Alaska ride two years ago on their Spyders after attending the LA owners event. One lost control on the loose gravel (and poor road conditions) and went off the road. He was really banged up and the Spyder was wrecked. He had to be airlifted to a hospital after he was picked up by a passing motorist and driven to the closest town.

Yazz,
Love the pics and information. If you are going to be coming thru Cuba on your return trip let me know and I will try to ride down and spend a few hours with you. Be safe, have fun and enjoy.

The Alcan Highway can be dangerous if the rider is not careful. It is mostly paved now and you only run into gravel sections where the road is being repaired. There is not much traffic on the road where you will be--we saw a car about every 20 minutes in that section last July. You should be all right on your trip.

we were all talking about this thread the other day here in Los Angeles. Faran had been checking it out too, and we were talking about your riding through the snow. I'm gonna remember the tip about looking for the drops of rain in the puddles.
