• 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.

Name changed

Volusia Spyder Ryders

for months I had a Yahoo group on line with the name of "Spyder Ryders of Daytona Beach" the most members it drew in was 4.1. One of the guys that joined met with me and said he wanted to try something so we agreed to help each other out. He went to a web site www.meetup.com and started a group and named it "Volusia Spyder Ryders." In less then 4 weeks he had 4 members. Then he came to me one Friday at lunch and says "Bob, I want you to be a Sub Organizer while I go back to Ohio and restore my farm house, airplane hangers, and barn." Being a friend I said go for it. Now a year had gone by since I generated the Yahoo group and it was going no where so I closed it down

Then I remembered spyderlovers.com and got active here and remembered I had listed the Yahoo thing here as a group so I asked Lamont to change the name to VSR. That accelerated the growth of VSR to its present stage of 11 members. After I rewrote the greeting statement and all that.

it has been a challenge to draw members out of the woodwork so I tried homemade poster sheets and went around to almost every brand dealer in town handing out posters. I keep revising them and I have one now tat disappears pretty regular like at the Can-Am dealer. Plus their sales guys are backing me now. so maybe it will grow.

2013.06.09. We are up two new members now making a total of 11
