• 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.

Ride to Clearwater Beach Event

Saturday is looking like it is going to be a beautiful day. A little chilly maybe, but a great day otherwise. We are looking forward to a very interesting day again. Still time to join in on the fun.
 
Attention: Attention: Attention

Change in ride plans. I just received an e-Mail from Deb Lussier aka Spike, that the Gasparilla parade in Downtown Tampa is the same week end. So we have a decision to make. We can still ride hwy 60 to Brandon but from there is where the change has to be. We have two choices:
first choice LeRoy Salamon exp. this is a toll road and I think this would be our best bet, the second choice I-4 to I-275 think about it and we can take a vote at CFPS. Again I would like to say Thanks to DEB aka spike. Carol and John

From I-4, take E Hillsborough Ave, W Hillsborough Ave, FL-580 W/W Hillsborough Ave, Tampa Rd, County Rd 611/N McMullen Booth Rd straight south to 10400 49th St North Pinellas Park. No tolls, 3 lanes, 1 hour.:doorag:
 
From Brandon take I75 South to 275 and then the sunshine bridge... That would be a hoot for those who have not been on the bridge.
 
We got home about 6:30pm from riding to Clearwater, we rode 311 miles, we had a great time and met old friends and some new ones. Johnnnyg led us on a great ride to Clearwater. Quaker Steak & Lub was packed with people, what a place. :yes::yes::thumbup:
 
I want to thank Johnnyg for for saving my butt and leading this ride. Another great job Johnny. We also learned the way to win a 50/50 drawing is to not be there.Good news though, the drinks are on Blinc and I don't mean water :thumbup: 13 Spyders and 17 people. Nice turn out.
 
Thanks for the pics blinc Oh yeh, we left to early you could of bought our drinks too, Money bags :roflblack::roflblack:. Just so everyone knows Bruce was trying to catch up with us ever since the stop in Bartow so I called him and asked if he wanted to participate in the 50/50 He said yes and would you put $5 in for me, we thought it was best to go ahead and draw instead of waiting another 15min to draw. This way we could get in line to go eat. Other wise the case of you not being there would apply. We put on 368 miles for this trip and really enjoyed it. Thanks for everyone that showed up. That being said here are the pics from johnnyg and I. I now have another camera so we could get front and back shots, now you will see John in more of the pictures. Hope you like them. Carol and John

Oh yeh, Forrest where were you? You suggested the skyway so we did it. We waited at CFPS for you and you didn't show? Is everything OK?
