• 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.

Sad, this happened near me....

This happened near where I live, my sister passed by the scene just after emergency personnel arrived, and she confirmed a spyder was involved..

sad

the article said they went through the stop sign and you wonder how this happens.no matter what it is sad that two people lost their life's thought and prayers go out to the family's
 
:pray::pray::pray: go out to the family and friends. We were tied up all weekend and did not hear about it until now. Very sad.
 
I'm still wonder what led to the accident at all- distraction? Brake system malfunction? I know that road pretty well, and usually not a whole lot happens on there except for winter, and that's when voak road gets treacherous. Hopefully they can plug into the bike's ECM and get answers, at least if there was a brake malfunction somewhere on the machine.
 
OMG! My last name is Harrington (No relation) and I'm most likely going to be in the Finger Lakes region (Skanneateles) in the fall - on the Spyder. Am taking this as a sign to be extra extra vigilant!!
Prayers go out to the other Harrington family. :pray:
 
You have no idea.....

Accident

Any time some one dies it is a tragedy for the family. When both die at the same time it is even worse. Assuming they had children, one can only assume it was catastrophic to them.

Now the kids have multiple calamities to deal with, the death of two parents, funerals, estate things and the legal things involving thr court system.

Which brings up another good question. Do you have your stuff all done so when your time comes your survivors are spared the same problems?

My Mom had their estate planning all done when Dad up and died unexpectedly. she made her Mother do the same thing. Her estate is all done and current. Not that I expect her to die tomorrow. At 92.5 you never know even knowing she still drives herself, lives alone and wouldn't have it any other way. My wife and I have everything documented so if either or both were to die together her niece has a plan already in place.
