• 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.

Sequoyah Caverns

Sequoyah Caverns is closing to the public on September 3, 2013. It is located in NE Alabama off I-59 and US 11. They have even doing tours for 49 years.

I have proposed a ride to the cavern for riders from AL, TN and GA. Since people will be coming from lots of different locations, I thought we would ride and meet there at 10:30 am AL Central time. Afterwards, we could ride over to LaFayette, GA via GA136 for lunch.

If we have 15 or more people we will get a discount on admission to Sequoyah Caverns, $10.95.

Back decades ago, I was one of many cavers that surveyed the cave for the owners. We traded free camping for our surveying of the cave. The first years of the TAG Fall Cave-In were held there until they acquired a place in GA where it's been held since around 2004.

It was suggested by some of the GA owners at the OE in Maggie Valley that I post the event here in the GA section here on SpyderLovers. I have done so.

I am picking a date for the ride, August 10, 2013. Meet in the parking lot around 10:30 am Central Time.

After meeting at and touring the cave we can take the scenic route of GA136 from Trenton, GA to LaFayette, GA for lunch. GA136 is listed on the Motorcycle Roads website for N. GA. It's a fun ride on a Spyder. :yes:

There are several nice places to eat in LaFayette. I have been a visitor to LaFayette for over 35 years, as it has one of the most famous caves in the world that is located near by, Ellison's Cave.

I added that we will be meeting around 10:30 am Central Time, since the cavern is located in Alabamie.
 
See the photo above of Fansastic Pit. A 586 foot drop from The Attic. Been there, done that.....

If I can't get my RT fixed I may be doing the ride in my truck? Seems that the clutch is going on my SE5 transmission. This started on the Maggie Valley trip.
Freedom Power Sports in Kennasaw can't touch it for two weeks. Can anybody recommend a dealer in the greater metro Atlanta area?

Mountain Motorsports in Marietta, on the 41, is a Can Am dealer now.
Have not used them for service yet, but they don't chase me off when I go look at new Spyders.

Mountain Motorsports is where I bought our 2013 RT. They have a super maintenance shop and a certified Spyder mechanic. They are in Marietta on Cobb Pky.
 
Sequoyah Caverns Tour

Is this event still planned? How long is the caverns tour? How much walking, crawling, etc is involved ?
How many Spyders are expecting to go? What is the lunch restaurant?

Enquiring minds would like more info....
