• 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.

Remembering my first Owners Event

I think my first one was SITS in 2009(?) Not long after I bought my 2008 GS. Anybody on here remember the Gentleman was certain TN was not a helmet state and did not get far, when he got nailed by the law. The next year he had a helmet covered in hair. Then second or third version of Spyderfeast in Cuba with 300 Spyders ? lamoster BBQ, Owners event are all great fun and great people. If you can make them, you will enjoy them.
Thanks for all the great time by all the sponsors. I am no longer able to travel much, but wish the best travels to all of you.

Owner's event 2010 at Maggie Valley & Lamont's BBQ.

Chris

Chris, in2010 it was Spyders In the Smokies put on by Spyder Talk and Lamont had a BBQ. The Owners Event was in Chicago that year.

I said that the Smoky event was my first event but really I went to an event in Wisconsin that was put on by Robs Performance, the dealer who now does Spyder Rendevous. It was a Spyder event but there were less than 10 Spyders there. That is where I met Butch and Paula and Kelly. We all met up in Gatlinburg for the Smoky event and have been friends with them ever since.
 
For us it was Spyderquest 2013, Spyderquest 2014 and Spyderquest 2015 next year. We just love it. Unfortunately, it is the only one close enough for us. May do Pierre's bash in Quebec City if we have the time.

John, if you do run up through PA and are near Harrisburg, give me a heads up. I'll treat you to a meal, breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

We're new to the world of Spyder, but are considering going to Spyderquest 2015. Maybe you can fill us in on the do's and don'ts we should expect or avoid.
 
I guess I'll have to say Spyderfest 2015 will be my first event on MY Spyder, though I've been a +1 at both Owners Events in Durango and at Spyderfest 2014. Looking forward to attending these events on a Spyder of my own!
