• 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.

    Belt Movement

    Yes, it runs normally just about the width of a credit card from the flange. So when I backed out of the Garage, it seems to move over against the flange. It was a simple test, not exhaustive in detail and I'd guess each one of us might have slightly different results based on age, tension, and...

    Belt Movement

    So does our Spyder belts move when we back up? What about turning left, turning right, accel, de-cell and all that? Well the only way I could answer the question was to do a test: I was a bit surprised at what the camera captured, you might be as well. 3 minute video...

    Well Summer went straight from too hot to ride to cold weather, but today, it is back in the 50's in January and I need to answer this question: What happens to our Spyder's Belt when we back up, turn left. turn right and so on! So I got out the Go Pro and make a test. I gotta admit, I was...

    2020 RT Limited?

    I've watched all the video I can find on the 2020 RT Limited trying to decide if I want to upgrade: What I like: Better seating room, nice floor boards, nice two helmet "Trunk" and the phone connects up on top in an insulated glove box and a better sway bar. Ignition key is below the handle...

    Ozarks Spyder Rides

    Here is the short video of the Route 66 Museum that is behind the Arby's in Lebanon, Missouri. It's not all that much but hey, it was a place to stop and when we left, we actually took the old Route 66 from Lebanon all the way to Springfield, Missouri. It was a nice peaceful ride and it was far...

    Ozarks Spyder Rides

    Hey fellow Spyder Lovers, I said I'd wait until Fall to do more videos! Well, after 3 weeks of 90+ temps we got some rain and it cooled down on the 1st day of Fall (2019) so we rode! This short video is of the Bennett Spring State Park and features the actual million gallon a day spring that...

    Ozarks Spyder Rides

    Just a follow up to the Wonder of Wildlife (last post) video! Even though the wife and I live within a few miles of the Wonders of wildlife Museum, we had never gone through it since the 10 year re-model. So we spent the money and went through it!. I now see why it took 10 years to do the...

    Ozarks Spyder Rides

    Ok, it's been 20 days and it was all too hot for all 20 days! But today, it has dropped to 80 degrees and the humidity is much lower and it looks like it will stay this way all the way through the week. As it turns out, I have brothers coming in from out of state (Texas and Iowa) to ride this...

    Ozarks Spyder Rides

    Nothing to add this week, way to hot to ride during the day for us old folks! A front came through late in the afternoon so by 7:00PM the wife and I could get out for a couple of hours and ride. Nothing worth getting the Go Pro out for but just a nice evening. Since we live so close to Bass...

    Ozarks Spyder Rides

    June 20th! My brother called me and asked if I wanted to go with him on one of his rides and so we did! We left Springfield, rode around the Pomme de Terre Lake and I took the opportunity to get some footage of the Dam itself with the water being let out, due to the high amounts of rain we...

    Ozarks Spyder Rides

    Goober says Hey! This next video is taken from a ride headed North out of Branson, Mo. on Hi Way 248. I made two short videos out of the twisty ride since most of use don't like videos longer than just a few minutes. https://youtu.be/nHmXMbxrgEo I'll get the second part up later after I have...
