• 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.

Had my Spyders hauled to FL, great shipper

Hi all,

We arrived in our home in Cape Coral, FL, on Tuesday, after leaving NH in the pouring rain on 12/27. The Spyders were picked up on 12/26, and were delivered yesterday.

I know the question about hauling Spyders has come up here before, and we had a GREAT experience with our shipper, so I wanted to let everyone know about him.

His name is Michael Sorrentino, he is based out of Ft. Lauderdale. I found him on uShip.com. He had a competitive bid, and the best feedback of everyone that bid on my shipment.

He carried the Spyders in an enclosed trailer with front wheel chocks and 6 point tie downs to an Etrac system. He was punctual - he called and said he'd be at my place in about an hour, he was there in 58 minutes. He communicated and let me know where my bikes were at any given time. And, one the biggest issues for me - he does the driving. He does not broker his deliveries at all. I knew who would be moving my bikes the whole time.

I gave him stellar feedback on uShip, but wanted to share my good experience with everyone here, and let you all know how to reach Mike:

Lamont, if putting his contact info is against the rules of the board, I apologize in advance. Let me know and I'll remove any offending content.

Happy New Year to all,

That is fantastic info. I know many people who would rather ship their bikes to an event than ride them, me included. Thanks you for the info!

More info please.

Shipped from where to FL? Where did he pick up?

And an approx. cost?

Thanks.

Shipped from New Hampshire. He picked up in my driveway. Delivered to my driveway in FL. Cost was $1350. His bid was within $150 of the lowest bid (not counting a couple outliers, who have a 6x10 trailer and a Ford F150, who offered to do it for $700).
 
Thanks this is great info. I passed on a Mexico trip recently because I did not feel like making the long ride through Texas to McAllen.
