• 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.

New feature added to SpyderLovers- Spyder Riding Groups!

Lamonster

SpyderLovers Founder
There has been a lot of talk about riding groups within SpyderLovers and I've added a feature to the site that will help you to create your own Group/Club or whatever you want to call it. This will be a little different than the chapter pages we have now for each state as it will allow you to create a riding group that is not tied to just one state or local area. You could have a group for just those who like to take long rides or Ironbutt rides lets say, or maybe a cold weather riding group or just a Spyder riding club group. You can name the group whatever you want as long as you use the same guidelines as we use here for the rest of the content on this site. If you have a riding group outside of SpyderLovers and want to post your group here that's fine too, just follow the same rules as the rest of the site.

If you already have a group now but need to be able to organize your group a little better this might work out for you. I would ask that you don't create a group just for the sake of it, if this is abused that group will be deleted by me. :lecturef_smilie:



So how do I start a group or join a group?

If you look in the gray menu bar above you'll see a drop down menu that says "Community", click on that and then click on "Groups".

There you will be able to create a group or join a group. This is also where you'll find new groups that have been created.
Here's some info on that.

I'm new to this myself but will try and answer any questions you may have about what it takes to start a group, join a group and how the group should be used. My hope is this will help you all to create a tighter bond within SpyderLovers and be able to organize more group rides and share more events with each other. :doorag:
 
Great idea !!

Just tried the link and I get a message that I don't have permission to access the page ................

Still, once the bugs get worked out this will be terrific.
 
How do you edit the group that I created ??? It says I do not have permission to do so. Thanks for the help.
 
8 members in 3 hours !!! :yikes::yikes: NY gawkers are here to stay. :roflblack:
 
Lamont will there be a place to check out club post, say like what you have set up for the states? Or general Disc. I just figured it out.

HONORED

I am truly honored that i could be the inspiration for your club name, and invited to join. i doubt seriously if i will ever make it to the new york area on my spyder, since i can't stand to ride it for more than 2-3 hours, but i will always be there in spirit and via spyderlovers.:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:
 
Don't know how to start a thread if I can't find that word in the header or what ever. BUT wanted to know if one of the MOGANG had more intelligence than I ever thought of having, and they would get up a "GROUP" in the new GROUP thingy. Seems there is a short disertaion on what the group does sorta. Really like this idea of the group thing. Looks like it would really work out well too. Thanks Lamont udaman!!!! :ohyea::2thumbs:
 
Is this because there isn't anything worth gawking at, or are your members just very disciplined? :dontknow:
We are a very disciplined group. Just look at Arntufun since Lamont scolded him, he hasn't made a peep.:D:roflblack:
