• 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 "Ride To Eat" forum/category

I come from a Honda ST1300, and one of the forums I visited when I had that bike had a "ride to eat" or RTE forum/category. It was kinda neat. Anyone could post a destination for lunch, in advance, on a Sat or Sun, listing the date, time, and address of the establishment, and anyone who could make it there would make the day ride and join the group for lunch. Is there a RTE forum/category here somewhere on SL that I don't see? What do ya think of the idea? (If there isn't) I made a few. It was kinda neat meeting people from the area. Some would ride for several hrs just to meet up and eat.

There are two ways to announce a Ride To Eat here.

1- Go to the main discussion board, scroll down to the bottom, find your home state, post a get-together there. Texas has had some great meet and eats.

2 - Post an announcement on the 'Rides and Events' forum.

Hope this helps...
 
Hey Rick

Do you have a "ride for Pie" t-shirt?

I came from the same ST 1300 forum and have mine. I still do some of the RTEs in the Phoenix area.

GREAT IDEA!!

I Apologize for mis-spelling your name. My short term memory is gone and it won't let me change the heading. Oh, never mind!

Very Cool Idea, my vote would be for this having it['s own category at least initially as a test.

Somehow, having a destination gives more purpose to a ride.

I think it would be a great way to meet and find out if you wanted to get closer or just decide to stay awy Oldmanzues
 
Chuck,

I think this is a great idea too even though I was very surprised to see a lot of people who live out of my state read posts that occur within this state. I guess I shouldn't be surprised because a lot of people read this "test" subforum, and that surprised me as well.

I have to admit that sometimes I intentionally post in the "general discussion" section when it is probably more appropriate to post in another section. I do this because I know it gets better coverage.
