• 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.

    Spyder Event(s)??

    If you want something different, I'd look at Spyderfever in Council Bluffs, IA for next year. The rally is sold out for this year. It is kept small for the very reason that other rallies that have grown TOO big eventually fail. Unfortunately I think Deadwood is heading in that direction...

    Google map route to Garmin GPS

    Are you looking to use on GPS or your smart phone? I've found 4 apps that work on GPS and the smart phone; Google Maps, MyRoute (fee), Bike GPX (if you want voice turn by turn, there is a fee), H-D Drive. If you create a map on your computer with Google Maps and you have Google Maps on your...

    Update - I've since found out how to successfully create a GPX file from Google Maps and download it to my Garmin Zumo. Works great and doesn't cost anything.

    Best Trailer For Hauling Spyder

    I got a Bear Track all aluminum 65" x 120" - about 400 pounds. I have a 4 cyl car and needed something a light trailor. The Stinger is a good alternative, but without modification, you can only haul a Spyder. The Bear Track has a bi-fold gate, but with a lighted bump skid on my bike, I had to...

    Riding Apps

    I have looked at several apps to convert Google Maps or other progams to a GPX file to load to my Zumo. I was successful creating a GPX and load to Zumo but when I brought it up, it reverted to what Zumo wanted and not the route I created. I called Garmin and a tech told me that the model will...

    BEST warranty

    When I bought my 2014 RTL from PitBull back in 2014, I got the special 4 year warranty deal. It runs out end of this month. I found an extended warranty from Sierra Cycles (David) that 'reads' well as far as coverage. I've heard/read good things about this policy, but may find out in the...
