• 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.

Things that I've learned in a year..

It's already been a year since I signed up here. Time really flew by; I guess that it does that when you're having fun! :thumbup:
Over this past year I think that somehow I've managed to learn an awful lot and I'd like to recap some of it with all of you...
1. Keep a light grip on the bars, don't micromanage the steering, and buy a set of Elkas!
2. BRP doesn't understand a thing about front tire pressures. Everybody seems to be hiding more air in the front tires than they suggest.
3. Oil level, oil level, oil level...
4. likewise for brake fluid!
5. "Brand Myopia" is alive and well... Try and start a comparison between brands and see what happens!
6. If a ryde breaks out; gas up before leaving because your range ain't what it ought to be...
7. Helmets can both save lives and start lively debates!
8. If Scotty or Lamont tell you something; bet the mortgage payment that it's gonna be true!
9. If they ever get enough "motor under the hood", BRP will sell a ZILLION of these bikes.
10. I've made a lot of good friends here that I just haven't had the good fortune of meeting in person yet! :clap:
You all have my sincere sympathies for having to put up with me and my keyboard for this year and I want to thank all of you for what you've taught me and how well I've been treated! Here's hoping for many more years to come! :cheers:
 
Thanks Bob for being one of the great personalitys on this forum. Happy anniversary and we will meet you in October when you come up here. :thumbup: Over 3,600 posts in one year, that has to be some sort of record. You may get an achivement pin for that.:2thumbs:

Happy anniversary and thank you for the wonderful recap of your observations.

The site would not be the same without your input and humor.

Wishing you many more years of fun ryding and posting on line.

Please, please, please, keep your avatar away from that picture. We could be in serious trouble there. :roflblack:
