• 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.

Texas Spyder Ryders Logo

Will have to ask Pappy and Nanny if ok to use his design I guess but yes. Maybe in short sleeve and long sleeve also since fall is`coming
 
Pretty cool looking I have been playing with the ideal for some time when I came across your posting. Here is what I had been working on. Keep in mind it isn't finished only a rough thought.

I'm not a fan of arachnids of any kind. Sorry. I do like the Texas Ranger badge. Someone does need to check on the copyright of the badge design. Adding the 'Y' will make it nice. Easier to identify as a Spyder Ryder from a distance. I've been told that the 'Y' is a copyright owned by BRP and I've asked about getting permission to use it on other things. The answer was don't waste your time. They won't give permission. BUT, I know many folks use it. Not trying to be a downer, but trying to keep all of us out of trouble.

Very good points!

I have seen tons Of badges like the Rangers badge at all the rally's. I think we are good on the design as long as we don't put the "actual" saying of Texas rangers on it. I don't think we need any marking except the words "Texas Spyder Riders". I will ask my fiend who is a cop though just to make sure. Thanks for that heads up!!
 
I wold be interested in the patches, t-shirts----I like the badge idea really well. Have you tried the badge over the "flag" design texas--the one with the spider on it??

If you'll e=mail me a jpeg of decent size, I'll take it to my patch=maker and get a quote also. The same goes for your "T-Wain". The larger the file the better the scan for detail.

This sounds like a great idea. I will not be able to get any quotes for a few weeks. I'm spending the next few days in a hospital bed then on my couch for a week or so. Any info you can get would be awesome!! I know I want a patch and t shirt. But, only of the one WITHOUT a spider in it. :)
 
"T-Wain", I've been busy up at the shop. Seems that the Sturgis trip this year took it's toll on a few local bikes around here. That and just just doing routine service.

Back to the patch, what size are ya'll looking to get. I know your not wanting a full-size back patch. So what about 3 1/2" heart patches. Since it want be in the quantities of hundreds, can probably get them made for around 15.00 each. I can find out Tuesday when she opens. What I'll do is make a pencil copy of Texas Ranger and show it to her, with a request for 25. I might even be able to interest my sticker maker into making some windshield or helmet stickers also..A really big one would look good on my polished SS trailer...

What did you find out on the patches and or stickers?

Will have to find some one to make the`shirts. Going to Vandiver next week and to Tail of the Dragon so will try to get something when return from trip.
 
I have a patch being made, should be ready Friday:pray:. I'll post a pick.
Pricing would depend on order. Setup fee has already been taken care of with this 1st patch:yikes:.
Looked into T's, but would have to have at least a hundred or more to make them affordable, and that is still around $18.00 ea. Still looking. I know there are cheaper vendors out there, just looking for quality as well as quantity minimum's..

I have a guy here in Friendswood that charges about $10 per shirt and $75 for art set up...we have to have 24 shirts...so $75 / 24 is 3.125 + $10= $13 or $14 dollars per shirt...no one makes a profit...let's get this going...no matter who does the shirts....
 
I would like the the logo on the front and the back of the shirts. Maybe a small one on the front and a larger one on the back. Different color shirts also.

Do we have a pic of the Y on the badge yet?
 
Just an FYI, I have an agreement with selling shirts and patches on this site with CAT Specialties. You can use whoever you like but most of the state shirts have been done through CAT and that's the only way they can be sold on this site. If you use another vendor they will have to be sold on another venue like Facebook or something like that. Sorry
