Today... this
-
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.
Yesterday I was riding

Talked with my brother in NW Arkansas yesterday. He said 30 above and they got a foot of snow just South of them.
Here in Alaska, we had 38 degrees and rain. Got a little snow--less than an inch last night.
Hmmmmmmmmmmm. Do I really want to move South? :roflblack:

Snow tires is actually an interesting idea.

A couple things to consider: The two front wheels act like a snow plow. The rear wheel spins out very easy on ice/snow.
If you find you can go, you may not be able to stop. I wont put myself or my spyder in undo peril. Those bigger out of control vehicles are the ones I am afraid of.

Early on (2008) one of the dealers here had some made special. He used them for one 20 mile round trip from home to work. Winter driving on snow and ice was not for him.
I tried mine in my driveway (no snow tires) and got stuck in three inches of snow. Had to get pushed out. I park em in ice and snow. I am one of the last to park and one of the first to ride when the snow/ice goes away.
The manual does state not to ride in snow. But...that is CYA for BRP I am guessing.
Just my .02. :bowdown:

Fyi from the south .....(maybe mid south for some) rain , cold rain, & yesterday heavy mist that should be rain, roads just as wet but no pooling. & sill cold so when your walking under an awning to enter somewhere there is a laser guided COLD drop of water that will: 1: hit your square in forehead, 2: hit perfectly between your collar & trail down your spine. Those wearing glasses : you already know the joys from fog, drops, mist, cumbersome gloves & all that:clap:
Today is looking little better so far. :clap:
Thankfully I only know the glasses info from being only 1 in family to not need them, even after injury THANK YOU LORD!

Been deeper than that for over a week here. Get the sleds out!
It makes the good riding days even more special, right?

We got a little here in the Carson Valley too... wanted to take the F3 out but my driveway is a wonderful mix of gravel and ice. I did get a little ride in just after the last storm, once most of the snow was melted off the street. I was surprised at how much warmer it was to ride the F3 as opposed to my Victory Cross Country - it was 35 degrees and I never turned on the heated jacket liner.
Now, who makes sand (snow) paddles for the Spyder... hmm?
