• 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.

Arnadillo vs spyder

Thursday night coming home I ran over a armadillo with the right front wheel .No damage no loss of control . I don't think the two wheelers would have been as lucky.
 
I am glad this all worked out well. I concur that it probably would not have fared as well with a two wheeler.
 
Arnadillo..is that Schwarzenegger's next movie roll?:thumbup: HE'S BACK...and he's gonna steal all the Lone Star!
 
That is why I feel so much better about ryding at night now. I just would not ride my 2 wheeler at night, but have been ryding the Spyder a lot at night.
 
Question: Do you think it was better to tag him with a front tire rather than center puch him with the bodywork?? :yikes:
"Possum on the half-shell..." :roflblack: Is that "Texan Sushi"? :roflblack: :thumbup:
 
We were heading for home with my wife leading on her RT. She swerved a little to miss an Armadillo but couldn't move out of her lane due to oncoming traffic. It was a dead 'dillo and she missed with the front wheels but angled over it (or should I say, through it), with that fat rear tire.

My RT was subsequently drenched in Armadillo guts all over the front end as the thing literally exploded in front of me.

By the time we got home most of that stuff was baked on my Spyder.

Yuk and Ugh!

Depends on how fast you get to it after the "accident". :trike:

:barf: That's what happens when the sun bakes 'em for a day or so.
 
Glad everything went ok for the spyder and rider .

I was wondering how the spyder would handle running over something in the road ?

As for guts all over the front , baked on -- that sux , bet it smelled nice too .

I have seen my share of deer parts and other creatures stuffed into the fronts of cars and trucks . Not pretty !
 
I was surprised at how stable the rt is when running over large FOD. When I blew the tire on the bolder ( yes it's getting bigger every time I talk about it) I really felt the hit but tracking stayed in line.
