• 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.

Gatlinburg short video clips

Here are a few short video clips that Rando took with his Flip video camera. It is a pretty cool little camera. I downloaded the videos to my laptop and just finished putting them on Youtube so I can share. I also have a longer one of The Tail of the Dragon from Brian's Hero Spyder mounted camera. I have to edit it first and then post it as they only allow for a 10 minute video on youtube. In the mean time here are a few clips to enjoy and I'll post more as I get them.
First day's ride meet up at Sugarland visitors center in Smoky Mountains National Park.

Some shots from the early ride on Friday that a few of us took prior to the meet up for the Hillbilly ride. These have not been edited yet so excuse some of the shots.

Here are the last two videos we took. These were after the Can-Am BBQ and we decided to go back into the Park even through the rain. It was still a nice ride with beautiful scenery.

What great pictures, including the Elephants,

Thanks for posting these picture it sure looked great, however I did notice on clip 'Pre-Hillbiily ride #2' just after you made the left hand turn ( and I was not going to mention doing what we call here in CA, a California stop ) if you look hard just after the turn there appears to be a big green Elephant in the field, no thats also something to talk about..............

Glad all went well and you all had a great time, hopefully I will vebture out more next year to the 'other side of the US oa A'
 
( and I was not going to mention doing what we call here in CA, a California stop )

I hear you but if everyone stops, looks both ways, then turns, the group gets so spread out and if our guide turned down a side road, someone would get lost. On those back roads, we rarely came across other traffic so a cautious rolling stop kept us together pretty well.
p.s. A GPS didn't always work real well in that area. Sometimes it caused more confusion than just trying to follow street signs (if there were any).
