• 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 Web in Iowa

I'm from Des Moinse and was there 2 years ago and at that time the Chili King Drive-in was still there and as good as always. I plan on making it back there on my new F3 in June, long ways from Idaho but need to break the F3 in somehow.
I am from Adel and used to go to The Chili King when I was a kid. The tenderloins were great.

My suggestion for East Iowa any one chime in for possible stops.

Big Arm we need some western Iowa stops have any?

1. Sutliff bar and grill east central Ia. along Cedar River North of Iowa City.

2. Balltown Ia. just a real cool Mississippi River Bluff town

3. J&P Cycles headquarters in Anamosa Ia. there's a museum in Anamosa and this is where the Co. was founded neat place.

4. Amana Colonies lots of history and a tourist destination.

5. Sabula Ia. a stop there, its a good bike town across river for Savannah Il. the home of Mr. Poopy's. Where Il. could have a stop directly across river.

6. Iowa City Iowa:roflblack::roflblack::roflblack: You all could see the most screwed up town in Ia.:roflblack: College town home of the Hawkeyes, and a community of very non-traditional values.

7. The Freedom Rock near Greenfield

8. Little Brown Church, Nashua

9. The Grotto, West Bend

OK, here goes it. A small group of Spyder Ryders are forming a new Chapter of SRA for Western Iowa/Eastern Nebraska. It is the NISR chapter. It is an acronym for Nebraska/Iowa Spyder Ryders and also a play on words of "nicer".
We already have rydes scheduled during Spydermania II on Aug. 29-30 which will be held at the Country Inn & Suites in Council Bluffs. There are some great scenic rides in Western Iowa in the Loess Hills Byway routes the State of Iowa laid out a few years ago from Sioux City to the Missouri border.
And don't forget to stop at the Twisted Tail in Beebeetown, Iowa.... It's a really nice bar and restaurant (with good food) that is a biker stopover. We welcome all Spyder Ryders to join our new chapter. See us on Facebook or contact THE BIG F at: [email protected]
Have a great day and let's hope spring gets here real soon.
THE BIG F
