• 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.

Spyder-friendly Motorcycle Safety courses?

Total Rider in Austin

Thought I'd update this thread with a more recent experience; my wife and I both just completed the Basic 3-Wheel Course offered by Total Rider, taking advantage of the BRP promotion that dropped the cost to $50 per person.

Neither of us is an experienced rider -- as in, no experience whatsoever. We both enjoyed it thoroughly, and it accomplished our objective of determining whether or not we wanted to go ahead and get a Spyder. (Answer: yes. We'll be finalizing that in the next few days!)

Jeff was our instructor, and he did a great job of not only covering the material effectively but ensuring we were really absorbing the concepts and skills. I took my first test ride out in the real world this last weekend, and I felt very well prepared -- and had a blast.

No personal stake in the company or anything like that; since I've benefited greatly from lurking on this forum as we moved from "maybe we could" to "totally gotta," I just wanted to pay it forward.

We're looking to connecting with some of the other central Texas Sypder Ryders soon -- we'll focus on building up some experience before we slow any of you down on a group ride!
 
Hey UtahPete, you might want to check the date on the original post that you just quoted.... ;)

I agree it might be just a little confusing, but it's also just a leeedle bit old! :D
