• 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.

    Any thoughts on battery replacement? Change now or at failure?

    Hi All, Any thoughts on proactive battery replacement? I have a well maintained 4.5 year old battery that has never given me an issue. Knowing average life expectancy and there is little warning when they go wondering if it just better to do it at start of season and wait for failure, jump it...

Once that is done I need the temps over 40 following a decent rain to clear the salt. Really not looking forward to winter this year. Hoping...

    Lake Michigan Circle Info/Experience?

    Thanks all for the great suggestions and advice. I am open to extending the trip to more than 4 days. I figured 4 days as I am seeing mileage estimates at apx 1100 miles, thinking 250 - 300 a day would allow time for sights and relaxing evenings. IdahoMtnSpyder, great suggestion, I think it...
