• 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.

VALCOURT

There are seven of us leaving western North Carolina on May 30th. Should arrive on the morning of June 2nd. Looking forward to meeting old friends and new friends.
 
I am booked!

Called the Hotel tonight. The booking I made back in January is good to go. I plan to do the 511 miles on Thursday June first. Should be a fun 10 hour ride.

If anyone going up from PA or NY or VT wants to meet up on the way, let me know:

I know Google says 8 hours, but I stop at least once an hour to relax and check out the local scenery ;)

There's a few of us going up on Thursday from the New York metro area. I have a feeling that stretch of the Thruway is going to see a heavy Spyder infestation on Thursday. Probably be running into each other all day.

Looks like we got us a convoy!

Hello Roger,
Meg and I hope to see you there as well. We are thinking of leaving South Jersey (exit 58) around 3-4 am on Thursday to avoid the traffic on the PW we run into in North Jersey. Last time we lost one hour to traffic up that way. As you said, sure we will see other spyders during the journey.

Take Care,
Lou and Meg

Though I always prepare for all kinds of weather, can some of our Canadian friends give us an idea of what kind of weather usually happens in June.?:dontknow::dontknow::dontknow:
