• 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.

Help !

I can't wait until we get Firefly's take on this !!! :popcorn::popcorn:

Glad we got to help. Well I didn't actually "help" I sort of stood around gabbing while the men did their thing but it was great to help someone out and I'll tell ya - Firefly and his friends were cool and fun to hang out with. So now I wanna go to Hell in September and ride w/ 'em - you guys gonna be around then Firefly?

Kim, I have been trying to get you to Hell for two years. Let me know if you make it this year, it is only an hour from our place.
 
HDXBONES has the knowhow with HD's.
It was Firefly group.
It wasn't HDXBONES ride.
It wasn't Firefly HD.
HDXBONES have a Spyder in the family.
Firefly Spyder runs flawlessly.
Question:
Who brought them together? The Spyder or HD?
SpyderLovers brought them together, of course!
 
Scotty would be correct-- spyderlovers brought us together. Whoda thought we'd have a double breakdown 10 miles away from where HDX lives?

I knew when I posted the help thread someone could point us in the right direction- and I knew this was HDX territory and had no doubt that if he was around and able to help that he would.

I told my pals when things happened that I could post on this site and would have some good options by morning and that I knew someone in the area that knew HD's really well and had tools, etc. and that I'd bet he could help.

Lou(HDX) and my pal Doug did most the wrenching using various tools from Lou and myself. So me and HDX wrenching on a couple of HD's together--- priceless!!!

Great people and overall made for a great day. Got both guys running safe back on the road. We made it to Worcester for a great dinner and micro-brews--- then made it to Boston safe and sound.

Quite the unexpected experiences so far on this trip- but that's what makes them memorable.

Will post more later and tell the whole story a bit better when I can get time to be on my computer.

Honored to call Lou and Kim friends.
 
Oh---- and one of the guys booked us in a hostel in Boston for 2 nights. Never done this kind of thing before ----- and won't ever again.

I like a nice clean room bed and shower!

Here's a pic of the dorm type quarters we are staying in. Realize there is also the guy taking the photo with us--- so 5 total in a room that could barely fit a spyder.

Joy. Not. What an adventure.
 
Firefly, are you guys still going from Boston up north near Canada before you head home ???

Now what are we going to do on Spyderlovers now that we can't argue with HDX ??? :roflblack::roflblack: He really came through for you guys so I can't bust his chops about oil anymore. nojoke

This so reminds me of when President Ronald Regan brought our USA together with Russia. It's that important !!! :roflblack:
 
Kim, I have been trying to get you to Hell for two years. Let me know if you make it this year, it is only an hour from our place.

That would be cool as we can use a nice vacation - last one was TN 2 years ago and since then job changes, etc, it's been insane but hopefully this summer at some point!

This is one road trip you won't forget. Glad you got to make new friends!

One question though... two bunk beds, five guys... did someone have to sleep on the floor? :shemademe_smilie:
 
Extra bed under 2 bunks for skinny young frankie. No air cond either.

This place used to be old YMCA for boarding. Lots of people from all over the world.

$20 a nite. Adventure continues. At fennway now.
 
:2thumbs: Spyder Lovers helping each other out doesn't get any better than this meeting between you and HDX. Great trip report so far. Best of luck on your continued journey.

We have stayed at some real funky places before, and stayed at Hostels before, but you win hands down for best dive! :bowdown::firstplace:
Hope skinny young Frankie got a discount on his sleeping arrangement...

This mixed-blessing adventure is behind you, hope the rest of your ryde is a bit smoother!
