• 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.

TUNNEL OF TREES....2012

I'm hoping we will still be able to make the trip but my mom is in ICU and has been since Sunday. Things are not looking good so I may not be able to make the trip. Which sucks because I could sure use a stress relieving trip right now.

Rachel,
We're sorry to hear about your Mom. Know our prayers and thoughts are with you.

Rachel,
You and your mother are in our prayers.
 
Thank you

Well the prayers appear to be working. My mom made what the doctors are calling a miraculous recovery. Today she is out of the hospital and back to the care facility she resides in. She had a bleed in her brain in 09 which is why she is in a facility at the age of 64. If things continue on this path I will be making the tunnel trip after all :) She still has a couple of hurdles to overcome but the sepsis and septic shock seem to be knocked down she also had DIC which if you're familiar with know that is almost a death sentence. Thank you again for the prayers and I'm so excited to hop on the bike tonight after a long couple of weeks sitting in ICU!

Great news about your Mom. Hopefully she will continue to make progress. We will keep her in our thoughts and prayers.
 
Tunnel of Trees Ride next weekend

The Tunnel of Trees ride is next weekend. So, who's planning on coming? We're thinking of leaving around 10:00am on Saturday for the ride. We'll probably stop in Harbor Springs for a visit to Tom's Mom's Cookies, and the the Tunnel and a lunch stop at Leggs Inn. The Days Inn told me there were 5 rooms reserved as of last weekend.
Looking forward to seeing you in Petoskey.
Bob

Great rides

Hi all,
Bob and Joan, thanks again for putting together this years tunnel of trees ride. Even though the weather was less than perfect the ride was still a blast. On Sunday Emily and I rode to Mackinaw City through wind, rain, and hail. It was sunny and a little rain on and off while we walked aroung Mackinaw City and just as we got back to the bike to leave it started to rain with hail and maybe a snow flake or two :roflblack:. We really were not laughing. We headed back to Petoskey and it got a lot colder so we decided to call it quits. We never made it to the mushroom houses. All in all we did have a great time and are looking forward to a ride this summer.

Bob,
How was you trip home with two Spyders on the trailer!!!

Rachel,
I am looking forward to the edited video!!!

We got Jim's Spyder home and off the trailer with no problems. The trailer handled the two Spyders really well. I haven't heard from Jim yet to what the problem is.
We can always plan the mushroom houses next year. It was a great time, even if the weather didn't always cooperate.
 
I just want to let you all know that Rachel's mom passed today. Please keep Rachel and here family in you heart and prayers :pray::pray::pray: Thanks Emily Hansen
