• 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.

Ryde to the Movies

Just wanted to let everyone know what a great day we had yesterday with our June Gulf Coast SpyderRyders - Ryde to the Movies. I met Capt John yesterday morning and after checking out each others rydes we went by the movie theater and pre-purchased our tickets for a 3:45PM showing of the Transformers 2 - Revenge of the Fallen.

We rode from there to our designated starting point along Pensacola Bay. We met sabunim5 and were soon on the way fora 140 mile ryde along the gulfof Mexico and Mobile Bay. Although it was hot 95-96 degrees while we rode along the water there was a cooling breeze -- the weather was so perfect no one minded the heat.

We knew our time would be close for making the movie so when we reached Daphne, AL about 45 miles from the movie theater it was about 3:00PM. Well we opened up our :spyder2: and made the trip in about 35 minutes. A great ryde and all :spyder2: performed marvelously.

We watched the movie which was a pretty good sequel and as the others have stated we would have like to have seen more of the :spyder2: in the final cut. But this was a major film debut for the :spyder2: and I have no doubt that the :spyder2: will be used in other productions in the future.

We had a great dinner at a Thai Restuarant called Jasmine Fusion before departing company and heading for home. The Company and conversation was great and future plans for other rydes were initiated.

Thanks to Capt John and sabunim5 for making the Ryde to the Movies a really great experience.
 
I Am Happy You Guys Had a Good Time

:2thumbs: I know it was not the same for those of you who did not get to go to L.A but I am glad you had a good time when you saw the Transformer 2 movie. I cannot speak for everyone in the theater I was in but from my perspective, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves in L.A. also. There were cheers and clapping at appropriate times. I felt like we were all part of a family. Reading the threads from everyone each day, makes me feel that I have a special bond to you guys. This may sound sappy but whatever.
