just checking if anyone in south carolina wants to meet and ride one day soon?

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.
sc ride?

I would, but I think I'd end up w/ the ticket since I don't ryde as fast as you:shocked:
Sorta of like the saying " I don't have to be faster than the bear, I only need to be faster than you"
I think I'd be the bear meat!:roflblack:
I work weird schedules and the next days free for me are Sunday and possibly Monday.

well that is ok. i dont ride fast unless i am either by myself or the guys/girls go fast on their bikes. i am trying to give it a few days or weeks before u am planing on riding to give people more time to take off work or tell their better half they are going or whatever they have to do. so if you want to ride one day we can start a list or something and can plan a ride somewhere.

Ryde
We are in Ladson and due to our schedules we mostly ride weekends. There is the occasional school holiday that is the exception. One of our favorite cruises is 176 out of Goose Creek, across 6 to the lake, then turn at Ballentine to pick up 176 again. Or, just around the lakes down here.
Spring break is just around the corner, let's ryde.

I am relocating from Pennsylvania to SC this Monday (March 28th). My wife and kids are coming down after the school year. It will take a couple weeks to arrange getting my RSS down but, I would enjoy riding around SC to see the sites. I/We will be staying in Lexington.

Let us know when your Spyder gets here. Columbia is a little under a 2 hour ryde for me to get there, Greenville takes 3 hours or so. My ankle is still screwed up, but I am hoping I will be able to get some seat time in before the trip to Spyderfest.

Sorry to hear about your heart valve repair Carl. I hope you will be on the mend quickly, and able to get back on your Spyder sooner than later. Take good care of yourself so you heal well.
They replaced the front pulley and belt under warranty, and everything seems good to go for now. I only rode it home from the dealership, and then screwed up my ankle. My Spyder has not been ridden in just over a month now. I was hoping to get out today, but the ankle is still giving me too many problems to deal with it on the Spyder. The weather this weekend looks like it is supposed to be crummy, so I am hoping next weekend will be much better.

My wife fired up my Spyder for me a few days ago, just to make sure it would still start. :gaah: I still have the brand new Scorpion battery sitting here in the office. I am still debating on getting an isolator and running 2 batteries on my Spyder. Sorry you will miss the Savannah deal. I haven't been there in forever it seems, and probably need to make time to go back again.

Just joined the site and will pick up my 2011 Limited this Saturday. I'm retired due to kidney problems. Had a transplant, now ready to ride. Need to meet and maybe form a :spyder: club. I live near Columbia , S.C. Anyone interested? Have been riding 2 wheels over 50 years!! This will be a major change. Wife wants to travel.

I too have had a kidney transplant (getting native kidneys remove right after Spyderfest, wouldn't let them take'em ealier and miss this great meet). The company I work for just provided the main equipment for your new wastewater plant in Lugoff also one outrside Coulmbia. I spent about five weeks in the area last summer.

See if you can convince your wife to attend the Spyderfest event, and then the Owners Event. You will be able to meet a whole bunch of us, and have a great time doing so. :thumbup:

Sorry that I posted another response looking for riders. I didn't fully check out the site before doing it. Here's my problem, We already have plans for June. Wife will retire this year and that leaves us available to travel next year. My backgrond is in manufaturing ( tool & die ) and I have always done my own repairs on my motorcycles. I have been researching the sites and noticed several problems with the :spyder2:. They seem to be a very expensive ride. I know that everyone rides differently and I don't abuse my vehicles. Time will tell! Thanks for responding.

What about April 27-29? That is when Spyderfest US is being held in Cuba, MO. You can find out about it by clicking on the link on the home page.
Many of us do our own oil changes, and others do even higher level maintenance on their own. The labor is costly at times depending on the shops hourly rate and how much time they want to charge you for taking off all the tupperware to actually get to the work in the first place. Most of the actual problem issues have been fixed by recalls, and having the BEST warranty for after the 2 year manufacturer one runs out has been highly recommended. Hopefully you will have one of the Spyders that never has a problem, as their are many of them out there. :thumbup:
