• 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.

Not so good about taking pictures but We have been to Spyderfest twice been to the Black Hills twice we led several rides in Durango for the Owners Event and many miles in-between I love to ride. Did 1157 miles in 17 hours from Springfield ( Spyderfest) to Castle Rock , we hit Topeak, Des Moines, Lincoln and Denver :yes::clap:jtpollock

:thumbup: Miles of smiles is the point. Pics are just easier for me to show others why I enjoy it so much, personally. Have been accused of "big fish" tales one too many I guess so now I'm armed & find more odd out of the way fun things to add to my collection. Namely hard to believe is a full blown light house in N Louisiana!

another wise guy I should have said my speed odometer rolled over to 55,000... there is no such thing as take it easy just put it in gear and ride :roflblack: :thumbup::clap:jtpollock
 
another wise guy ....

Not sure how wise I am, but I really do enjoy my Spyder! :clap:

How many sets of tires have you worn thru in 55K miles? I'm at a little over 15K on mine and the original tires all 3 still look real good with plenty of tread still.

Oh and, Congrats on reaching 55K! :yes:

I'm on my 4th rear tire just put it on at 50,000 on my second set on the front and they are not showing much wear. My first rear tire needed replaced at 8,000 and my front tires needed replacement
at 16,000 I use rideon to balance my tires and it works super... jtpollock
