• 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.

sunrise to sunset ride (FL coast to coast)

Ciny & I won't make it to the "Deland Start", but will meet up with ya'll either at Crabby Joes or up around Ormand by the Sea. Bottom line is that we'll catch up with ya'll. I have your number John and yours as well Mike.

First ones home.

Sis and I had a fantastic day being with a great bunch of Spyderlovers, and that includes those not riding a Spyder :thumbup:. It's hard to put into words how much today meant to Sis and I, since this was our first extended ride in about 6 months. I was pretty whipped by the time we got to Micanopy. So, even though Sis really wanted to ride continue on to Cedar Key and spend the night somewhere, I told her that I didn't think I was up to riding that much further and really needed to head home, which we did, down I-75 :banghead:, a long, boring slog of 100 miles or so. This was brought home every time Sis fell asleep and her helmet would hit mine.;) But, after a nice nap, a soak in the hot tub, followed by a nice aged Cuban cigar and a cup of espresso, the world is once again a beautiful place.

But my Butt still hurts!:yikes: Even with the Corbin. Guess I'm out of shape. I think Forrest had a good idea when he mentioned his Airhawk seat pad. I'll have to dig that out for the next trip.

While we really wish we could be sharing dinner with y'all in Cedar Key, it's good to home, clean, and NOT SITTING on a motorcycle.

Sis held up very well, so we're ready to ride some more, especially as it begins to cool a little, and the love bug infestation ends.

We had hoped to make the ride today, but the delivery of our Spyder (2011 RTS-SE5 Ver.2.0) got delayed about 5 days due to some unforseen issues (nothing mechanical, just cosmetic). Good news is, it's in the garage as of about 1:00pm this afternoon and now we are ready for Daytona in a couple of weeks. Hope all enjoyed (and were able to see the sunrise). I'm sure is was a great ride. We'll make it next time. Hope to see some of you in Daytona.

We'd like to thank everyone that show for the Sunrise to Sunset ride. The ride started at 5:30 in Deland Fl ending up at Cedar Key Fl 8 PM. The total miles for each rider varied, but ours was 417 from home and back. We had a brief shower of about 15min and got carried away with the 15 million love bugs :yikes:. Besides that it couldn't of been a better day. :opps: Forgot about no power in Micanopy for lunch. All and all we had a great time with all our :ani29: friends. Mouthpiece proved that when you concentrate on your riding you can miss other :spyder2: :roflblack::roflblack:. Here is a link to all the pics to many to post all.
