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.

Not sure of the brand, but these were that type of frame. They just couldn't withstand being rolled over by vehicle tires.

North to Alaska Group arrive in BC, Canada
My wife and I met the group at the Washington/BC border and led them on some more scenic, less busy roads, had lunch at a local pub and then led them as far as Merritt, BC, about 135 miles, before sending them off on the remaining 100 miles of their first day to Clinton. Obviously they didn't get lost.
Yes, it was the first day we had rain in weeks and although we needed it, we would have preferred it rain another day. We waited at the border for about 1 hour mostly in the rain and shortly before they arrived, the sun came out. It rained again when we crossed the mountain pass going to Merritt.
Attached are a few pictures. Not great pictures but a record of their arrival in BC and a couple of pictures at the restaurant.

Looks like a great trip so far
Love the pictures that are being posted. Been watching them on the spot map and looks like they are making good time. Of course the spot doesn't show the weather. Be neat if it did. At least they seem to have good satellite coverage. How cool, gotta do this next year.

I was looking at the SPOT link and my first thought was that you missed your turn on to highway 16. Either that or you went into Prince George for a lunch stop and had to turn around to go back to 16. Either way, you seem to be on the right track now. 
Burns Lake tonight I believe.

Just got home from Alaska Monday.
We left Austin on May 25 returned yesterday and bought a new 2015 RT limited today.
We pulled a 39'ft RV and hauled a RZR for off road fun. We met my sister on the way back for a night as she was heading up. Have fun. The road from Destruction Bay to the Alaska border is the roughest road you will ever drive.

Someone broke down?
I just saw this video from Shawn Smoak up in Wa. at ProCaliber dealer.
He was talking about someone going to Alaska from Oregon. I assume it's someone on this trip?
It appears they broke down due to some cheap LED strip that was installed on the trunk lid......

It was Robin I think. From Vegas. It was her battery. The cheap LED strip was the magnesium one at the start. He said he had them confused. He said ALWAYS use the Yuasa batteries.

WTF? Sean replaced the MaP sensor on her Spyder. Had nothing to do with LED lights. Sean must be smoking some of that weed in WA. Get your story straight before posting BS on YouTube.

We had s beautiful sunny ride today from Burns Lake to Tatogga Lake, Iskut, British Columbia. Gorgeous mountain lakes and smooth curvy roads. Gas stops take a while as they have a law here that all purchases must be prepaid do our original gas plan had to be scrapped.
Tomorrow is a long day to the Yukon Territory.
