• 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.

A great ride today

I remember the times living in Johnson City and cruising on Cayuga on a 40 foot steel hull with twin Corvette engines, not mine, it belonged to one of our IBM friends. Good times on the lake and beautiful country.

It was too wet for us ride here in North Carolina today but we met with our regular Spyder friends for breakfast, unfortunately we had to ride in the cages. It's all good we pretty much ride year 'round.
 
Otter(Chad) and his wife Brenda, Yellhelp(Bill), Spyderman990(Don) and my wife and I all met in Cortland today and took off for a couple of the Finger Lakes namely Skaneatlas and Cayuga. We went up thru Skaneatlas over to Auburn stopped at Tim Hortons and then over to the west side of Cayuga Lake and down into Ithaca. We stopped there and ate and then back to Dryden and onto our respective homes. It was a great day and temps got into the high 50s and sunny all day long. It was really special to get back out with fellow Spyder Lovers after a long and boring winter. There was snow in some of the fields yet and we saw kids sliding down hill in their shirt sleeves. I thought that was weird and then got to the north end of Skaneatlas Lake and saw 2 Jet Skiis tearing up the lake(even more wierd) and having a great time. Looking forward to more rides this summer with these guys and anyone else that wants to come along!!:thumbup::yes:

Just wanted to add a couple of pics. of our 1st ride of the year. Planned on taking more but failed to do it.:dontknow:

Hi, Haven't talked to you in a while, are you still doing PGR rides? If you guys are going to be in the Syracuse area give Nan & I a shout and maybe we can get a ride in.
 
It's bright and sunny and hitting 80 degrees here. I so hate being trapped in this office! :banghead:

Hi Bob,
Ya when we can we go to the PGR rides. In fact I was thinking of going to the mission in Mattydale today, but I've fighting a cold and sore throat the last few days so I don't think I am going to make it with the cold weather. We go to Spaghetti Warehouse quite often on Wednesdays......they have their Spaghetti deal that day. Let me know if you would be interested in going there. :thumbup:

So how have you guys been? We'll have to get you on some of the rides that will be coming up with us! We are going to Spyderfest again this year, in about 3 weeks....just hope the weather gets a lot better by then.:banghead:

We have been good, thanks. I was going to Mattydale, then got messed up with things. Weather here is terrible, got about 6 - 7 inches of snow & wind is blowing like crazy. Not a spyder day. The warehouse sounds good once the weather changes.
