• 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.

Yes, My son and I met everyone at our table for the first time, from a little farm in Connecticut,
to two couples who work at a Can-Am dealership in Hanover PA. They had heard of Spyderlovers,
but none had joined, hope I did not scare them away.

Great pics. Too bad the weather wasn't a bit nicer.
 
Thanks for the show, that was great. It seems that the Spyder events have a common theme this year, "Ryding in the Rain!"
