• 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.

    Lower my sights? Nah, I'm prepared to wait. I'd like to get something about 2 to 5 years old. I think that is where I'll find the best deal over all. I'm embarrassed to have to admit that I had to google 'farkle'. I've been thinking on a paisley wrap. <smirk>

    Thanks fer the input Mr. Big. At 72 years of age and retired, I'm looking at an investment of probably about $27,000 plus PDI, license and tax as well as insurance. We are just scraping by as it is so I would LITERALLY be wondering where the next tank of gas is coming from. Just the same, if...

    Thanks for the insight William. Re: 'I wouldn't use it as getaway car in a bank heist' I use my 2012 Chevrolet Cruze for that.

    Not THAT far from Bowmanville mmeechan but I guess we're not going to be weekly coffee buddies at Tim's. My last bike was an 81 Honda CBX B so the wife has had some experience although not since about 1990. We'll see if she can resist in the end. Did you get the S2S?

    Dipping my big toe in to check the water

    So...I completed the Spyder Ryding course on September 24 at Fleming College in Peterborough, Ontario. There were five students in all; one other man, three women and myself.

    Easier said than done, oh Leaping One. Up until now I've let my wife control the purse strings and we have done fairly well under that condition. If it were just me I would have a Spyder by now and would probably be wondering where the next tank of gas was coming from. I had best not upset the...

    Dipping my big toe in to check the water

    Initially I was talking about the operation of the Spyder Greg. I don't imagine that I would have a great deal of trouble acclimatizing to it but when I saw that there is a course teaching the basics I just thought that might be the route for me given that I haven't made my mind up if I want one...
