• 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.

Cuba, MO Fest ride?

Just to fuel this flame...

Melanie and I are planning on Ladybug RV (cuz we have the Bunkhouse) Still waiting on reservations. Prolly wanna leave ATL area Tuesday AM (overnite stay enroute may be a consideration). Arrive Cuba Mo area noonish on Wednesday. Returning after Cowtown breakfast on Sunday (again overnite stay enroute may be consideration).

Let me rephrase that. There will be an overnight between ATL and Cuba, for us at least.

If you are in the neighborhood (figuratively speaking), would you be willing, along with OldandGrouchy to coordinate the Georgia Spyder Riders Spyderfest jaunt?
 
Greetings From (Near Chattanooga)

Greetings all,

I am planning to head to Spyderfest, and I am just north of the ATL area, if you all are ryding up and wanted a place to stay, its a little north and a bit out of the way (about 30 miles) but I would happily offer up my place to be somewhere to overnight.

Just thought I would throw it out there.
 
I'm planning to head there to arrive Tuesday night. Will be going through Memphis to join up with my brother & Goldwing trike for the rest of the trip. Will likely stay Monday night with him & make the second half of the trip Tuesday.
This will add about 100 miles to my trip each way, but that's just fine when I get to ride with my brother! :yes:

I am about 90% sure right now that I will be able to go. In either case I will be glad to help get the plans started. I am going to make my trip over two days (about 400 miles each day) and get there before the start of the Spyder (arrive April 26) Fest and start back home the first day (Sunday May 1)after it is over, again taking two days to make the trip. If any newbies would like to take their first long trip I would be very happy to lead them and help them plan. If a 400 mile day seems too much I would be open to do a two and a half day up and a two and a half day back. The full days in this case would be only about 250 to 275 miles each with the balance on the third day. This should be do able for almost anyone who wants to go for it. I will be leaving from Augusta Ga, taking I-20 West past Atlanta and going up the back way from Alabama via I-55 North. It's a much nicer ride and you avoid all of the massive road construction and traffic around St.Louis and other cities on the route. I will be camping in Cuba Mo but staying at motels on the way. If anyone is interested lets talk.

By the way my wife made me change my avatar, she thought it was not dignified enough!:banghead::shemademe_smilie:

Really want to go this year

Last year's "vacation" was spent at the Cleveland Clinic, getting heart plumbing fixed.
Vacation for 2012, per my wife, will be getting knees repaired/replaced. WTF?
Maybe some recovery could be riding 1600 miles round trip!:thumbup:
 
My by the time you will be done with the doctors you should be 110%! If you want to go to spyderfest at a slower pace, I'm retired and not in any hurry. I am thinking of getting an Augusta group together to have a fun trip and a reasonable pace, avoiding traffic etc. Let me know how your doing with the doc's.
 
Speaking of docs, I see that docdoru has posted a Florida Xpress map, coming thru ATL. We are tentative planning on leaving ATL Tuesday AM. I am liking the route thru Birmingham idea. Route still to be discussed. May have Doc - Riverside joining us.

I am also planning on leaving Augusta Tuesday. Doc will most likely do the entire trip in about 3 hours and 45 min. :roflblack: Well maybe not that fast but in one day for sure. We could work out a first night meeting place perhaps for the Augusta group and then ride together from there or if no one else from Augusta is going I could stay at my daughter's house Monday night in Marietta and meet up with the ATL group. It's still a little early for exact details but it sounds like a plan.
:chat:
 
Sorry, I was away and now in the process of moving.

We (Marilyn & I) agree that the distance requires a stopover in both directions. Let's talk and see if a small group of us can travel together? Have a great day.

Have reservations and it is on the calender. If the timing works out I would love to join the group travel plans.
 
Cuba

Darcy (Skosh) and I (Cracker) are planning on leaving Tuesday Morning as well. We will be pulling a camper and trailer with dogs. We are camping at Lady Bug Campground April 25th - 29th. We are fine with anyone else joining us on the ride.
