• 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.

USER NAMES/HANDLES - What does yours mean? Where did it come from?

I got the demon part when I was young and rode a red Ducati that I laid three times. I played with the three wheels and that to get to the 3wheeldemon. Now, dislexic guys like Tom in NM think it is "3 wheeled mom" and that p..ses me off! :D

I tried to create the handle SPYDERWOMAN because my license plate says that and everyone at the place I do bike business calls me that and where I work that is what they call me. Spyderwoman was already taken--go figure!:roflblack:

So I resorted to Terribull. Everyone called me Terri growing up and my maiden name was Page. Kids used to kid around and say hey Terra Page then it was just expanded to if I married Tom Fick I would be Terrifick, if I married Joe Tory I would be a Territory and so on.... I always liked the one...If I married Sitting Bull I would beTerriBull!!

So there........long drawn out story.....:shocked:
 
A couple years ago I joined a Ford truck forum and chose Bikeguy for a screen name because I thought I might be able to remember it. Since then I've used it on every forum I've joined for the same reason. I wish I was as creative as some of you are but I'm not. Just want something easy to remember.

John G. , that's me (not very original I know)

In High School I got tagged 2Gunns ...after the song by Tommy 2Gunns. Maybe you guys know it: "Jenny I've got your number...867-5309"

it's actually Tommy Tutone...that's how I got tagged!

My name is Tom and I live in and ride New Mexico.

When I purchased my Spyder, I was one of the first few that had one in Vermont. My dealer is the only dealer that sells spyders in Vermont as far as I know. I don't usually get a chance to take many rides too far from home, so I guess I consider myself a Vermont Spyder Rider ''vtrider"

The Spyder is Nancy's, and so am I, hence NancysToy. Maybe I'll have to change back to "Scooter Scotty" as I have been known since the mid-sixties, after I my own Spyder RT-S is delivered.

Hey Scotty,
With all of the bikes you have parked on your garage, you should change your handle to "Collector".:thumbup:
 
My (then 4year old) daughter called me Daddy Longlegs. Then we got a spyder. Oh and at 6 and a half feet tall I have longlegs.
 
My last name is Wolf, and of course WolfSpyder was already taken so I had to switch it around.

Cool thread idea. :clap:
