• 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.

    Two weeks to flatten the curve

    Why? Wouldn't that be indoctrination rather than education?

    Two weeks to flatten the curve

    I wonder how well the polio 'shots' would have been accepted if the delivery vehicle was something less palatable, like Brussel sprouts...

    Two weeks to flatten the curve

    In 'off topic' category it doesn't need to be about Spyders or ryding. That said, I do wonder what message the O.P. is trying to convey.

    Utopian? Dystopian? What's the right word?

    Why you should flush your brake fluid properly

    I'm seeing discoloration but not necessarily contamination. Is that right?

    A question or two for those who carry firearms on them when riding

    I can see where a firearm would be useful in the back-country.

    That seems to be the prevailing opinion, for sure.

    A question or two for those who carry firearms on them when riding

    I agree. I don't understand why people think that's what I've been saying, because it's not. I'm not judging AT ALL. I'm just asking why people carry. It's a lot like a discussion we've had in the past about wearing ATGATT on a Spyder when, except for the helmet, ATGATT is designed to minimize...

    A question or two for those who carry firearms on them when riding

    I don't believe that point of view is based on any rational analysis of the statistics. Why not just say you like guns and the comfort you get from carrying one? I get it - I'm fascinated by them also. But, I don't have any expectation of ever being in a situation where I will have need of a...

    A question or two for those who carry firearms on them when riding

    Yes, let's cut to the chase. I'm not 'trolling', I'm asking why people carry guns with them when ryding. So far, nobody has stated what I think is the real reason; they like guns and feel better carrying, as is their right. And I'm perfectly okay with that. I just don't think it's for...

    A question or two for those who carry firearms on them when riding

    Statistically speaking, the chances of injuring an unprotected head while riding a motorcycle are probably thousands of times greater than encountering an unknown gunman out to get you. Even in America. Head injury can result from any type of impact, not just hitting the pavement. I wear a...

    A question or two for those who carry firearms on them when riding

    I do have some irrational fears of some places, probably based on nothing more than youthful impressions that have stuck with me. Those include the jungles of Africa and South America, which came from stories about the Mau Mau uprising and missionaries being killed by cannibals. Also, Chicago...

    A question or two for those who carry firearms on them when riding

    My wife and I have traveled and camped extensively in remote areas of the southwest and northwest and continue to do so. Both my Scamp travel trailer and and Lees-ure Lite camping trailer are set up with solar so we can camp off-grid, which is our preference to using busy noisy campgrounds. We...

    A question or two for those who carry firearms on them when riding

    So far, the responses seem to indicate that those who do carry while riding have no rational reason for doing so. No personal threatening experiences where a carried weapon was a factor in ensuring a favorable outcome for the rider, it seems.
