• 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.

Looking for hand guards ( the less expensive kind )

These will keep your hands toasty …. insulated, wind, waterproof MITTS …. go to DENNISKIRK.COM …( snowmobile catalog ) .. I used to wear them while snowmobiling, now I only downhill ski …. I have attached them to my ski poles, and have skied at 10-15 below, without getting cold. Yes the wind is only 30 mph, but that's enough to wick heat from your gloves. With the MITTS, I don't feel it..… If it wasn't for the MITTS I would have to give up skiing because of Frostbite issues ….. Mike :ohyea:

Yes JimH …." Hippo Hands " thanks for remembering the common name ….. Mike :ohyea:
 
Not to hijack the thread but this subject brings back old memories.
Back in the early 70's, around '74 I guess, I had only been married a few months and my wife and I loved riding my little 360cc Honda. I guess it was Jan or Feb and VERY cold but we were young and adventurous. It was night and we were on the D.C. beltway and I noticed that my hands were pretty much frozen to the grips. I pulled off the highway to warm my hands by putting my gloved hands near the exhaust pipe. My wife did the same with her very thin (but stylish) brown vinyl gloves. She thought that I had rested my leather gloves on the pipe so she did the same, melting hers to the chrome heat shield. Ever try to remove melted glove from chrome without messing it up? Yep, great memories....:yikes: I don't worry about frozen hands anymore, here in Florida.
