• 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.

I kinda agree with TC on this one. I think it's "what floats your boat."

I'm over 70. I did all that non-stop stuff coast to coast. I'm over it! I like riding at night or at least when it is cool. Sometimes hard to find here in North Texas. I like to ride in the boonies, and basically stay away from riding in the big cities and on the Interstates. I don't like riding in large crowds and with people I don't know their riding style. I like rides that are relatively short and at most a day ride out and back so that I can sleep in my own bed.

I got an invite to ride with the "Two Wheel Texans" sometime about a year or more ago. For most part they have meet and greet activities broken down somewhat by county. They are very loosely connected mostly by their website. No dues, no commitments. Occasionally they will have a day ride or something like that and I join in maybe a few times a year. Otherwise I like the couple times a month ride out to a restaurant in the Western Counties.

Iffn' a strictly Spyder Ryders group comes about, please keep me in mind. I'm up for that! Until then, look for me out here somewhere in the boonies.

Cheers,

I has started riding with Sothern Cruisers Riding Club. Very welcoming group of good people. They usually have one weekend ride a month, meetup and have a dinner ride each Tuesday and go greet the returning troops once or twice a month. No cost for membership, just need to participate once a month. They have a web site and forum to stay connected.

If everyone will keep posting attemted get togethers here I will join in when possible...just don't see the need to be part of two groups unless one is exclusively Spyders.

Hess - John and I rode 2-up out to Chalk Mountain about a month ago. Had rydden down to Hico and had dinner there in old town. It was a pretty ryde, full moon and all that. Didn't see any critters though...

:agree:with you about ryding in large groups, would rather just be 6 or so maxiumum - but you may want to ryde out in front of me, as we just put the Two Brothers on "Pearl" Woooo! that's one noisy biatch hehehe:shocked:

Larry... You're not the first to try and get something going among the Spyders. There are several Spyders in the DFW area. I hope we can come to the point where we can have our own club, but being honest, kinda like you, I've found that it is easier for present, to join in with another club(s) that appreciates us, have similar interests, and ride in the local area.

For the last year some of us has been joining the Two Wheel Texans rides (http://www.twtex.com/?). They have a forum site with "Upcoming Rides." We have basically centered in on rides close to where we live. You will find that there are several regular rides, usually on week nights. Of course there are those on weekends too. There is a regular breakfast meeting at the Blue Hangar Restaurant each Saturday at Northwest Regional Airport, Roanoke, TX.

I've attended rides with the TWT Johnson and Tarant County riders. I guess it depends on how far you are willing to ride and when. DFW is a huge area. For myself, I prefer to ride in the boonies (home is in Granbury), my weekends are often cluttered, and I do like to ride at night.

I have several e-mail addys for Spyder Ryders and try to keep them appraised of upcoming rides, again mostly with TWT. We usually meet up somewhere in the Hood, Parker, Johnson County areas and ride to meet up with the TWTs. For instance if you look at their website I mentioned, there is a ride of the Johnson County folks to Godley and the Taco del Norte restaurant. As of this evening they have not zeroed in on Thr or Fri of next week. (Their regular meeting is on the 3rd Thr of each month at 7:30.) The restaurant closes at 7:00 on Thr and 8:00 on Fri, so my vote is for Friday, but no action on exact time yet. Anyway... That's it from my perspective. Please feel to join us if you want. Also, I appreciate any comments...

Cheers,
