• 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.

OK this for the ryders that can't make it on Saturday.

Jump off point will be the Starbucks at Cascade Station,
10119 NE Cascade Parkway Portland, OR , it is over by IKEA.

Will be meeting at 9:30am, make sure the :spyder2: is full of gas, the ryders can drain their tanks or fill them at Starbucks.

PBO will be at 10AM, be ready!

From there we will follow a route from Rider Magazine, across the Columbia then east on Hwy 14. out 14 turning north onto Hwy 30 by Carson, then west on Curly Creek Road, reaching McClellan Overlook, then onto Nf 90, by the Ape Cabes. Then onto Hwy 503 back Yale Lake, Amboy, Battle Ground, Orchards and by to I-205.

Lunch and gas stop will be near Yale Lake, Dan's been there, good food, gas station just across the street.

Our RS drivers, Dan and Mike, know this route. I say one of them can lead us.

Nice riding area - good roads (there are more in that area too) - just way too late in the day for me…

Got to be ready for "SiR" the following weekend...
 
Kathy and I have other commitments but we will show up around 9:30 to socialize. Besides, my Spyder is up at Pro Caliber and won't be getting it back until Wednesday or Thursday this coming week. Faulty O2 sensors! :gaah: But it'll all be covered by the BEST coverage. :2thumbs: No harm, no foul!!! :D And, besides, do I really want to ride Kathy's Softail Deluxe to the coast again and lose yet more of my hearing? Those Vance & Hines are LOUD!!!
 
July 17th Ride

I just returned with a friend from a trial run of Sunday's ride. It was just beautiful! And the weather is suppose to be even better and clearer Sunday! We ran into a large classic motorcycle rally group at the McClellan Viewpoint and spent sometime talking about their's bikes and our Spyder. Stopped in Cougar for lunch, sitting outsidside on their patio enjoying the day and answering more questions about the Spyder. Anyone that hasn't rode this course will want to do it again, maybe in reverse next time.. See you Sunday.
 
Sounds like you had a wonderful ryde! We'll have to do it again sometime in the future. See you Sunday morning!
