• 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.

    Got my new SPYDER today!

    New Spyder!!! Congrats! You will love it! I have a '10 RT LTD and hubby has a '12. We did over 13,000 miles last summer and plan on doing the same in 2014. Nothing like it. I do recommend handle bar risers and better floor boards for long rides. Have fun and stay safe.

    Spyderfest 2014

    Spyderfest '14 We would love to particpate in one of these big Spyder events; but having it in potential snow country that time of year leaves us out. We had enough weather problems this year riding from Portland, OR to Pittsburgh, PA. Can't someone have one in warm country?
