• 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.

Today is the day now with pictures

Heading out in two hours to go pick up my new 2014 RT-L in pearl white with matching RT622 trailer.:yes::yes::yes:

Order it last fall and today it is going to be in the low 40's, but tomorrow close to 60:clap:

This will give me two days of riding before the temps nose dive again and I am forced to tear down the :ani29: To add the farkles:roflblack:

It's a 128 mile ride from the dealer home and should be a blast:2thumbs:

Pictures of Saturday morning picking the Spyder up and Pictures of it on Sunday evening.

Winter just doesn't want to let go! Talking to Earl the owner as we are picking up the Spyder. He is telling us that come Monday they are expecting 5 to 8 inches of Snow and that they have been extremely busy putting together new 2014 RT's for customers that are not picking them up due to the weather that they are running out of places to put them.
Glad I was able to get it today. The temp was 37 for about the first 60 miles on the ride home, but it hit 44 by the time I got home.
I will see if the photos turned out that my wife took with her phone. If so I will post them tomorrow.

It's great you had a break in this terrible winter to ryde it home :ohyea::ohyea: - I'm jealous. I rode mine from the enclosed delivery trailer into my garage -- that's it! :banghead:

However -- tomorrow, after church, we are planning on taking it out for the first time -:yes::yes::yes:- hope to ryde in an hour or two.....but we have plans for dinner, so probably will cut it short.

Like you said, winter is just not letting go ....back into the freezer next week again...we're getting closer to those nice days to ryde.

Congrats again and look forward to your pics....:thumbup:

Sorry we did not get to meet! Good people at Ollie's. I always enjoy talking to Earl.
Earl took my Spyder out and filled it up with gas and test rode it before handing it over. He said that he could have kept riding it and that for me to be careful as it will be easy to get speeding tickets as it rides so smooth that you could be doing 75 in a 35 zone before you know it - as he just did:yikes:
