• 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.

On my last trip the bike’s front tires began to turn almost causing some fender damage. So, my technique must be off with either the chocks ot the straps. What is the better strategy?
Thanks!

Well I use my ratchet strap over the rear tire ( only ) in line with the tread …. My RT has never moved, even during two small accidents ….. Screwing a short length of 2" X 2" next to the tires will prevent twisting …..But for me the strap has worked great …… Mike :ohyea:
 
You must not only secure the front tires from front and back but also side to side. Rear tire like BK911 said, front and back, but securing it from sideways sliding wouldn't at all.
