• 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.

Amazing what owning a Spyder will get you to do.

Since the Spyder won't go thru the automated car wash, I had to wash it at home with a garden hose and bucket, so while I was at it I washed the cars. I've lived in this house for almost 4 years now, and never washed my cars by hand.
 
I had a similar experience last week. I washed our Spyder and then thought about washing our car and truck. Then I came to my senses and my wife and I went for a ride on our sparkling clean Spyder, instead!:yes::yes::yes:
 
I did the same last week, washed the spyder and decided my car was dirty and washed it too! I never wash the car at home because it's hard to keep it from spotting when drying but I did it anyways. Fresh and clean!

I washed my bike this past Sunday when I got home from a trip. I tried Cycle Wash (recommended by Shawn Smoak) and have to say I'm very impressed with how it worked. Wet down the bike, sprayed on Cycle Wash, let it sit a few minutes, rinsed it off, then dried it with some terry cloth towels.

:D Another crisis prevented! :clap: :thumbup:
 
LOL, as I was washing mine, my wife says " while you have the hose out, clean my suv , its really dirty and then clean the house windows" . I went for a ride and did none of what she said! I am getting older and forget things sometimes. wink, wink.

Washing by hand means you have an excuse to caress it while washing it! :ohyea::ohyea::ohyea:
 
Now that I own a spyder my wife says that her car is getting neglected. I just told her it will only be for a couple of years. Lol.
 
After I've washed the Spyder I need at least a 2hr rest in my rocker

Need at least a week between the two. Getting old & feeble sucks.
 
Washing

What do you mean you can't take it through the automatic car wash? If you do, you save having to take a shower that night. Simple plan!

Yup! Remember the Clint Eastwood movie "Any Which Way You Can? (or something like that)--the whole motorcycle gang drove through a car wash. Did not look like it hurt at all. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:
 
RE: Washing

I am still thinking about that one. 2014 got a simple hand wash in April. 2011 got one last year. The car went through the wash a couple months ago.

I am lax, but it is getting time again for the whole fleet. :thumbup:
