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.

Where we going 8 legs? I know we will have a least 2 lunch stops.:roflblack:
Hi, Everyone...
Well, I'm able to make it. Unfortunately, Kathy has to work Friday, so it will be only me, if we congregate on Friday, the 5th.
Kathy recommends the 9 Irish Brothers tavern, on Highway 38, as a potential place. Another possibility might be the Bob Evans Restaurant, at the I-65 Exit onto SR 26, west side of the Interstate. We're both amenable for other suggested places to meet.
Looking forward to meeting y'all...:2thumbs:

P.S. I need to mention: I have a Learner's Permit, so it's only daylight hours for me...dang it...don't have my 30 days accumulated...

Ride, Part Two
I double-checked my weekly schedule...both days are free for me. So, whatever our Fearless Leader
and the group decides is fine with me...
Incidentally, don't forget the Freedom Ride on Saturday, August 8th. This annual ride will leave from Delphi, then go somewhere on backroads to an agreed meeting place, for food and fun. I only became aware of this event, two days ago. I'll go dig up the details and post them here. This event has been going on for some years...

Ahem! Well, okay...8LEGS is not our Fearless Leader. Neither am I...:dontknow:
Anyway...this is what I can tell everyone. Kathy and I ate lunch at a really delightful place today:
Nine Irish Brothers Pub.
3520 State Road 38 East. Lafayette
It's across from Raisor Ford, next to a Lafayette Savings Bank Branch, and a hop, skip and jump from Tippecanoe Mall. Easy access from I-65.
It's a true Irish pub, run by the O'Bryan family. Authentic Irish decor, food and Irish drinks, of course. A waitress there told me...if we know how many are coming, they could reserve one of their banquet rooms in advance for our personal use. A VERY nice place, friendly staff and the food was WOW! So, for what it's worth...if anoyone else has suggestions, please let 8LEGS et all know. But, this would be my choice, for a fun place to assemble.
Wednesday or Thursday...or should we let the weather forecast decide? It's up to all of usns, I guess...:chat:

Wednesday is looking good weather wise. Doug, I could ride to Flora and meet you somewhere, then on too the pub you suggested. Any thoughts John or Dick? Anyone from the south interested in going? While we are there I think I'll stop into Action Motorsports and talk to JD and see about my recall getting done.
Since I am off that day anyway, I'll still plan on going to Action Motorsports regardless if we meet up then or Thursday. I just want to ride!
:doorag:
I'll be working tonight and back in again in the morning, quick turn-around. I'll check the boards tomorrow.
Most of you have my Cell #.

Wednesday is fine with me, 8LEGS. We might want to keep an eye out for impending thunderstorm activity. Best bet to meet me in Flora would be at the intersection of Highways 18 and 75. There's a Marathon station with a big lot, on the southwest side. That should be okay.
Any particular time?
I can also let Tim O'Bryan, the pub owner know we're coming, if we can get a handle on the number planning to convene there. (I have both his phone number and e-mail address...)
Let me know, everyone...

50? :spyder: I went over 50 in my break in period. I think it's best to vary you speeds and not stay the same speed for an extended amount of time, but back roads are fine with me, get to see the countryside!
Since we're going to be so close to Action Motorsports we could stop there after lunch. I know John wanted to visit all the dealers in Indiana and he could get another one scratched off his list.
Any news on the central Indiana spyder riders?

When is a good time to eat lunch at the place you found? I could be in Flora by 10:30AM. We need to get a time set.
Lets have the others meet up with us at the pub at 11:30AM, if that is a good time.
