• 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.

First Time for This...

We are all used to having folks walk up to us where ever we go wanting to ask about our Spyder. That's one of the joys of owning one of these vehicles. But I was surprised at what happened to me today.

I was out just riding around and followed the same car for about a mile or more through several turns. After we both make a right turn we came upon a stop sign before merging onto a larger road. The car in front of me stops at the stop sign, as I did behind it, and also the car behind me. Out gets a little old lady who starts walking back to me, leaving her car in the middle of the road with the driver's door wide open. I'm thinking, "Oh shoot! What the heck did I do to upset this old gal??"

She came up to my Spyder, walked around the back of it, and approached me from the other side. Then she says, "What is that you are riding?" I quickly try to explain to her in a hurry what a Spyder is, as we are both holding up traffic behind us. "It REALLY looks fun!", she says. I asked, "Want a ride?", knowing that she couldn't take me up on it because her car was parked in the middle of the street. "Next time", she answers, and then walks slowly back to her car and merges into traffic. nojoke
 
The things that are the most true are often the most funny. May all your interactions be as positive as this one was.
 
Have to agree..!!

not usual that they would stop in the middle of the road to ask you about it. Must have been mind joggling..why, what did you do, what does she want etc etc..glad things went well and it was a fun experience...:roflblack:
 
@least she asked, I had younger chick just hop on@light , her friends cheering her on. I reacted quickly & informer her of the$250 no helmet ticket she would get ! Peacefully she dismounted & apologized,3blocks later was a cop :)

:banghead: And in traffic; no less... :banghead:
I'm glad to hear that it all worked out okay; there are a couple of dozen ways that the encounter could have gone sour quickly! :shocked:

Yeah, not the least of which is... if she had hopped on the back when I offered her a ride. :shocked:
