• 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.

Ride Forrest Ride!
Well my effort apparently paid off..
When I left Kissimmee, Fl to attend the LA owners evenst, I decided to try for the Iron Butt certificate.
Well, From Kissimmee, Fl to Pearcy, AR, 1,140 miles later and 21.5 hours I completed the trip.
Turned in my paper work and today received the Following:

Now that's cool! :doorag:

I'm so glad you got it Forest! :yes::yes:

Way to go Forest:congrats:; an accomplishment for sure. I'll stick to a slower pace stretched over time. Now you have that down you can sit back and enjoy the rides.
 
Great job! You are an inspiration to us all!

I did an Iron Butt on a 1993 Kawasaki Voyager in 1994, but that was never official. Maybe I can convince Kjen to do one with me on the Spyder soon. It's really not that hard. Just need to time your start so as to make your finish easier. I did the one in 1994 in 19 hrs, 20 min, along with 2 other riders (with their wives, I was solo).
 
:congrats:

I did about 1/3 that distance in 10 hours on Saturday and was feeling OK but don't think I'll be up to trying your time/distance for a while yet. Good on ya!

Rod.
