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.
To Alaska and Back...

:agree: Green with envy here. By all means possible please post pics to document this trip. I'd be curious to know how many miles this one put on the machine round trip.

This sounds like an amazing adventure, and something I would really love to do some day as well. Thanks for starting this thread and I will be looking forward to the updates.
Glad to see you made it to Cuba safely and hope you have a great time at Spyderfest.

I'm curious too. Trip A is for gas milage, Trip B is for the entire trip. Right now, Trip B is at 1,4something.

I'm taking lots of pictures. The problem is for reasons beyond my little mushbucket, can't get the pictures to upload to Spyderlovers. Have tried the hotel WiFi, Droid's WiFi Hot Spot, nothings doing the job. If anybody knows what I'm doing wrong... Please chime in.:helpsmilie:
Good seeing you again and meeting your dearly beloved. Great Lady! Would do anything for the man who can figure out GoggleDoc!:bowdown:
Was wonderful getting to chat with you at Gordo's. Have learned so much from you. Thank you!

It was a treat working with you. Couldn't have done the Ladies Ride without you being my left hand woman. Yup, that was a ride to remember for sure.

SpyderFest...
Went up to Cowtown on Tuesday and was amazed how many Spyder Ryders were in town.
Later that day, SpyderLady, Hubby and I did a trial run for the Ladies Ride. This is SpyderLady with the Host of the Restaurant.
Wednesday, everyone gathered at the Wagon Wheel to chat and figure out who had the best chili. They were all very good!
After the Chili Cook Off, there was a big bonfire at the Wagon Wheel. Never saw one that big before. There was a sanctioned off-road reverse obstacle course. We will leave it at I was disqualified for adding extra weight to Spydee.
Thursday, more people showing up. Teddy is in the House. He's cuter in person than the pictures. Its something about the Mo-Hawk.
So much more went on during Spyderfest. It was a great time. Got to meet up with old friends, and make new friends. Already looking forward to returning to Cuba next year.
The Mo Gang had more energy and patience than Santa's Elves. A HUGE THANK YOU to each and every one of you.

Mound City, MO thru Kansas...
We left Cuba Sunday morning and stayed the night in Mound City, MO. The next morning was very chilly. We had brought electric underwear but didn't think we would use them in the lower 48. You're always learning something new on the road. We have stayed toasty warm.
Cold weather gear...
When you're in Kansas, the sky is so big! It makes you feel like a flea on an elephant's rear.
In the afternoon, we saw a big storm cell up ahead and got into our rain gear. The closer we came to the cell, the bigger and darker it got. The only way was forward. The road looked like it was going straight into the center of the mess. When we got to the edge of it, looking up you could see the clouds roiling, lightning flashing. It had to be at least a couple of miles across. On one side, there was a cloud system swirling in a circular shape. Not a good sign. There was so much dynamics going on it felt like we were looking up at a Nebula. The road would take us under the storm, then gently sweep us to the edge. Teasing us the whole time. It was one of the most awe inspiring experience! We only got a few sprinkles the whole time.
Looking back at the storm...
Mr. Bill decided to join us on our trip.
Stayed at a truck stop that had a great restaurant.
O.k., what are these? Give you a clue... We are in Kansas which is known for their corn and beef.

Re: Trip to Alaska
Being a new Spyder owner, I have never personally met most of you but I must say I am enjoying every minute that I have been on this site! I saw this post a few days ago from Yaz about her trip to Alaska. I actually look forward to checking this post every day to see just how the trip is going! Yaz, I am enjoying your photos and seeing the places you have been. What a wonderful opportunity! All of this has helped to give me the courage to make some long trips. :yes: Hopefully I will meet many of you soon as I just made my hotel reservations for Maggie Valley!!! :2excited:
