• 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.

Do most of you have fancy skidoo's and quad's for winter ryding?
I saw this setup and had to smile...

No, the picture above is not a secret 2014 snowmobile but it does look cool! I wonder how fast it goes and if there is an X model.. This is a Can-Am Spyder that has been converted for snow. If you are looking for the new 2014 Ski-Doo snowmobiles, you can get the full details on the 2014 sleds at ski-doo.com You can find the original picture at the following URL: https://www.facebook.com/raymond.dufour.77

Ryde..!!

that's a kit, runs about $4,000.00..been around a while. Still wonder about clutches shifting gears etc.

We ryde all year round..good thing too..don't have any other toys...:roflblack::roflblack:
 
I park mine when snow and ice comes to my road. Usually mid October through March.

I do not have a snowmobile. Mobility issues do not allow me to heft them around in the snow. I would have real issues if I got stuck. So, I do other things all winter. Back to the guitars for me.
 
:shocked: I sit in the dark... :shocked:



...and pout!

Ryder Ryder, Ryder!

Winter is our best riding season. I'm planning on putting more than a few miles on my Spyder.

We have had our first snows in the "high country." The highest mountains now have "termination dust" on them.
 
I ride my Skidoo 1200 TNT in the winter months and the Spyder for spring, summer and early fall. It usually isn't much more than a month or two for me before the transition from Spyder to snowmobile, or snowmobile to spyder depending which end of the season I'm in. We had such a long winter last season up here in the northeast that I could have rode my spyder and gone to hills snowmobiling all in the same day. I don't ride the spyder on the salt brine roads though.
 
Is that snow kit street legal? I was going to look into MATTRAX to extend my season. We had snow from October to June last year here in traverse city, mi.

During the winter here I ride. I think I actually ride more in the fall and winter here than I do in the summer when it's often in the high 90s and 100s.

Yep...I'll be riding.
 
Maybe we can send you down some winter again? ;-)

Did you enjoy our Arctic Owls who flew down, and had enjoyable times visiting? ;-)

It must be nice no winter... I can only dream about it.
More lovely wet Snow predicted for today, right about now.
Afraid to look out the window. No, I won't even peek.

Yep, like you I will probably put more miles on my spyder in the fall, winter and spring.

Florida may not be perfect, and many times since we moved here in 83 I have wanted to leave. But somehow even with the changes around my part of Florida, there is good to be found.

We'll ride all fall, winter and spring. The riding will certainly be more dangerous with the infamous "snowbirds" as they are called by some arriving around Thanksgiving and leaving around Easter. Avoiding the nesting areas is a big key.

Sorry to hear about how many Spyders will be parked for a few months.
