• 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.

You got to love this guy

I sure could have used his inspiration and strength when I was paralyzed from eyes to toes in the '80's. Like him, today, I know what a gift it is to be able to ride. I may not walk very well but I sit pretty good.

In life it's not about what you get, it's about what you do with what you've been given... Good inspiration. Thanks for posting Lamont.
 
Live Life

From one amputee to another & birth defects, never quit & learn to adapt to what you want out of life ! If theres away theres a will. If you fall just get back up and try another way. Just deal with what life deals you with a positive attatude. I have had over 90 surgeries sence birth and stayed 5 yrs. In a childrens hospital in Chicago, Ill. Started rideing at age 7 stoped at age 13 never rode again. It all ways stays in your blood if you really love motorcycle's ! I kept my MC operators licences just until a year ago, Now I'm in my 40's. Some how some way soon I will ride again God willing. I have out weighed the risk and I'm going for it. You - I - We only live once. God bless all, and happy spydering down the road. :2thumbs:

Remember ! Quality over Quanity.

Best of luck to you in your pursuit of riding again. :thumbup:
 
Not to be outdone... ;-)

I see one artificial leg and two forearm cruches strapped to the back.

The SE5 has allowed me to feel the wind and the sun in the face once again... :ohyea:

I usually keep my artificial leg tightly folded inside the frunk, and carry my forearm crutches in those home-made adapters...

See my motto at bottom (signature).
 
pilo if you dont mind me asking do u have a sleeve that you wear with a pin it the end to hold prostetic on or not. Mine is below the knee but i have a pin that VERY securely holds my leg on. btw i like how u monted your crutches on pretty neat.
 
No problem with asking..., fellow amp...

I am an AKA. My prosthesis is a vacuum / suction type with no liner or pin.

I rarely use it while riding the Spyder because it causes discomfort at the buttock and groin after some time. Only use it for very short rides or city runs.

Check some pics of the crutches' arrangement; all made out with hardware store domestic components and a bit of ingenuity...

When I ride using the prosthesis, I remove the "adaptors" from the pegs, and just lodge my artificial foot's heel on the peg. Sometimes it stays there, sometimes not...:cus:

Cheers
