• 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.

    Mostly cloudy here in the desert. According to my neighbor there was a very slight drizzle just before dawn this morning. I was (as usual) unaware of what happens at that time of day (night?). The weather forecasters (liars) are now saying we will get light rain this afternoon (50% chance)...

    Got to watch most of the championship game on YouTube last night. It took some doing because they scramble or eliminate the signal every 10-15 minutes. Then I needed to do a search to find a new feed. But not much else to do while enjoying the evening. It was a good game. Currently here in...

    Gotta get some dog boots! They are a necessary high-fashion statement here in the summer.

    Random thought for the day

    Watching football playoffs today I had a random thought... When the players do a short introduction and proudly say where they played while in college, do they name all the schools that paid them money, or just the one that paid them the most?

    Definition of a Motorcycle...

    I think this bill creates more problems than it solves. My side-by-side, with 4 wheels, bucket seats, and a steering wheel was licensed and insured as a "motorcycle". My golf cart likewise is licensed and insured as a motorcycle. Both vehicle types are legal and regularly ridden on public...

    Random thought for the day

    I hadn't thought about Loran navigation for years. I had Loran on a couple of my boats way back in the late 70s or early 80s. Also had it on a commercial fishing boat that I skippered, I believe, in 1975. Remembering it wasn't near as user friendly as todays GPS.

    Great song by "The Storyteller". He wrote many songs for well know country singers, including Harper Valley PTA.

    Currently 48 degrees here in the desert. Humidity is 68% and it's mostly sunny with a few clouds drifting around. Todays high will only get to 58..... cool for us.

    I've gone from ATGATT to H (just Helmet).

    I migrated from almost all the gear all the time to comfortable protective gear all the time. Always wore at least blue jeans (+chaps and long johns when it got colder), over the ankle riding boots, modular helmet, fingerless nose pickers (full gauntlet leather gloves when it got cooler), and...

    Interesting conversation at the gas pump - asked why I chose to ride a Spyder rather than 'a real motorcycle'?!

    I'm not a very social person at the gas pump. Usually just want to fill up and go. Most bikers around here are like minded. But often times I'd have someone look at my Spyder and ask how I like it. My usual response was If I didn't like it, I wouldn't own it. That almost always sends them...

    It pays to buy quality gear

    Back in the 70s I bought an Eddie Bauer goose-down GorTex ski parka. I gave up skiing long ago but kept the jacket. Used it for cold weather riding. The wind, cold, and wet weather does not penetrate it. And after 50-some years, it looks good as new. It was very expensive at the time but...

    Any takers to Car wash your Spyder?

    Yup. A lesson I learned the hard way, on a wet, dark night with my house keys inside my wet rain suit. No one around and unable to get to my keys. Happened back in the 60s after spending a day riding dirt bike. Muddy, wet, slippery, I remember laughing at myself.
