• 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.

The "Good Morning" thread

63 * here and was working on the bike and having a nervous breakdown trying to get the battery to sit right back where it belongs. it didn't work
 
Six cups down... :shocked:
It's a beautiful day here in the Catskill Mountains. The temperatures should be in the low-sixties...
We had some visitors roll in earlier today: Spydaman60, and his Bride stopped by while on their way up North.
We are deep in the midst of putting a swimming pool in our back yard today. ;)
We have NO experience with them, and this has been an "interesting" day so far...
The Beast is 18' across, and might end up to be 4' deep. (If we can get enough water in it...)
With about a 5500 gallon capacity; we never planned on drawing the water through our well pump! :yikes:
Instead, we threw a hose in the creek behind the house, and are planning on sucking the water out of there.
Getting the 340 GPH pump primed, with 120' of hose hooked to it... has been "fun"... :gaah:, but it's finally spitting some water into the pool. We figure that if the specs on the pump are right; it'll take 18 hours to fill this thing...
But the way my luck goes with stuff like this; it's gonna take at least 12,467 days! :banghead:

Enjoy the pool. Had one like that in Ft. Wayne, IN. Memorial Day was always "pool opener" day. Make sure your ground pad is level or you will have different depths in your pool. :yes:
 
To busy to ride today.But meeting friends for breakfast and just go where ever the road takes us.Calling for clear Skies and sunny.

Good Luck with the creek water. Friend-o-mine in the Missouri Ozarks tried that from his rock-lined, clear-looking creek but no amount of chlorine would ever get the black out of that water. He ended up having to pump it all out, then re-fill it from his well anyway.
 
Coffee is on

Lee's Summit, MO. Temperature in the low 60s. Got up at 4:10 to let one of the dogs out and to make coffee. Having my first cup. Raining here a bunch. Getting together with friends to watch the Royals, then NASCAR later. 3000 mile service on Wednesday.:yes:

The water is looking surprisingly good... :2thumbs:
I pumped for eight hours yesterday, and fired things back up at 7:15 thus morning. I capped the hose running into the pool last night; I didn't know if it would lose it's prime if I didn't.
(Or worse: siphon all of the water back out of the pool, and back into the creek! :yikes:)
So the pump did hold it's prime!
Today is open for a ride now... We're just trying to figure out which direction to take! :dontknow:

And tonight: The Coca Cola 600 awaits... :D
 
Rainy, dreary 55* here in south central Wi. today, headed for upper 70's. We need the rain though, and we got a nice 200 smile ride in yesterday. Ride safe this wknd everyone. Happy Memorial Day!!

No way
At that time I am sound asleep and the dogs let themselves out:clap:
Now if only they could make my coffee and breakfast in bed at 8:00 :roflblack:
going to take a ride to Reno today with dogs :yes:
 
Just ran across this post, so I'm a little late. Clear Blue skies with Temps in the upper 70's to around 80 in Mooresville, NC. Didn't get to ride the bike yesterday or today. It is still in the shop getting the gasoline tank replaced. Finished my second cup of coffee about 12 hours ago. The wife and I did get to take the boat out on Lake Norman yesterday. Haven't done much of anything today. I hope to have the Spyder back in its garage early this week as good as new. Got places to go, people to see. 😀😀😀😀
 
Good Monday morning, it's a nice 55 at 6:53 here in East Tn. Temps going to 85 today. Hope you all have a good day of remembrance for those who served us. We'll ride around these mountain roads today not too far from home. Back to the Grind tomorrow!
 
I'm up earlier than usual and having my first cup of coffee. I see some blue in the sky for the first time in days. I may take a spin today after I get more woke up.
 
North east Kansas here. Coffee is good and weather is bad. Rain, rain, and some more rain. So I'll just keep on sipping and let all you folks in dry areas have all the fun.

After the Flag Exchange Ceremony at the Cemetery; we're planning on taking a short spin today... :thumbup:
(We fly the Flags from our veterans that have been interred at our Cemetery. We exchange the Flags on Memorial Day, and Veteran's Day.)
 
It's 55 heading up to 85 degrees today just southeast of Tucson. Heading to coffee pot now. Told hubby he could take the Spyder this morning to a meeting. :yes: You would thought it was Christmas around here. He was up at crack of dawn.
 
Forgot to Post...

... Yesterday after a good cup of coffee from our Keurig the wife and I set out from Atlanta for several days in Savannah GA. She on her Goldwing trike and me on the RT-S. The weather was perfect for riding at 70-degrees and cloudy, although the sun did manage to pop out and heat things up after our breakfast/lunch break in Macon. We made the 300-mile trip, one of the first ones since I bought the spyder in July of 2014. Many more trips to come, for sure... Have to learn to walk before we run lol. I did experience a very sore, tired, achy butt during the ride, but I think that is related to my lower back issues... I kept having to move and adjust my position to make things tolerable. I do have an air hawk seat pad, but it didn't seem to matter... I may have to look into a Russell seat?
