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.

Very interested. We try to make Bikefest every year. It's continuously becoming a better gathering annually. It would be nice to determine several hook up points for Spyder ryders who would like join the ride to Leesburg to participate. A few of the people I ride with have already voiced an interest!

Leesburg Spyder parking
I have been to Leesburg for many years, but this is the first year going with my new spyder.
I realize that the spyder may be to wide to ride through the downtown area. My question is, is there a Spyder corral for Spyder parking somewhere, or do the spyder owners meet up somewhere to share their add-ons or riding experiences?
Thanks C-YA RL

Great Question!!! It's my first year with a Spyder also. I'll have to research this and as the BRP reps said at Daytona Speedway Bike Week, "It's under investigation". :roflblack:
I'll let you know what I find out and If you find something out first, let me know! The side roads are always wide enough, but like you, I know it would be too narrow to drive a Spyder down the main drag. Maybe someone else knows.

I have rode my Spyder to Bikefest and never had a problem finding parking, but not on the main road thru downtown. There are many parking lots that charge but are safe and plenty of room. You will see lots of Spyders there and it is a great BikeFest. I actually like it much better than Daytona Bike Week. Have fun !:2thumbs:

Ride Forrest Ride!
Well ..... last year a number of us spyders rode down the main street.. and yes in alot of cases we had some very close tolerance's for the spyder.. However, who really knows about the main street parking until you get there..Also I question as to how the emergency vehicles navigate the street.

The RT shows 3" wider than the RS, so I don't think I want to take the chance of damaging my new ride. I will try to find a way into the side streets and a pay parking area.
Anyone heard if there is a location that the spyders are going to meet?
Thanks C-YA RL

That 3" difference concerned me also, but Forrest has a very good point about emergency vehicles. The only emergency vehicle access alternative would be the side streets. Still wouldn't miss Bikefest!

Leesburg Parking
OK Spyder Lovers. I haven't heard anything from you guys so far.
I went on the Leesburg Bikefest site and looked up parking spots.
It looks like I will try to park in the Beacon College lot on the NE corner of Magnolia and S Palmetto St. The information says that the money will go toward a scholarship fund and I think that is a good enough cause. It is only 1 block from Main St. and access is off 44 via Palmetto.
I look forward to seeing many :f_spider::f_spider::f_spider:at Leesburg.

Hope to see you all Saturday as I'll be walking Main Street and checking out the vendors.
Hi,
Are you a SCRC member? I'm with Chapter #115 in Jax. We are coming down to Leesburg Saturday morning.
All the best.

Well I guess we just couldn't get our spyders together.
We were there early enough to drive down main street, but it was extreamly tight in some spots.
We parked at Beacon College and the RT could be seen while walking on the Main St S sidewalk. We saw 2 other spyders parked there, but no RTs.
The weather was beautiful and the event was evan larger than last year.
I hope wheeler and dave had a good time. Sorry we didn't hookup. Maybe next year.
