• 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.

Your Spyder's Web (aka garage/shop thread)

Where does your Spyder sleep? Let's see em.

Been thinking of doing the floor with epoxy or paint, although there are gravel roads and sand in winter around here. Concerned it won't hold up over time so for now it stays plain concrete.

That's a nice collection of M/C and Spyder. You have a nice sized garage.

My three M/C and Spyders are stuffed in with little to no room to spare in winter. In summer, the Outback stays outside. :thumbup:
 
I regret doing epoxy

I did my garage a few years back with the two part epoxy, and really regret it. It holds up ok, but is VERY VERY slick when wet, and forget about it when it’s snowy and frozen. I’ve ended up losing it a few times. If you do decide to go epoxy, I would highly recommend adding some type of aggregate like sand blasting sand or the like for traction.

I added the sparkling flakes to mine to make it a little less slick, and it seems to do the job. I think it looks better too.

Thanks, it's a sickness. It's his, hers, and ours, all packed in there.
 
From shelter logic to new shed this year

I used a shelter logic portable building for 3 years and upgraded to a new shed this year. We keep 2 Spyders and a HD Ultra in there most of the time.

Built a small shop for the bikes and general equipment maintenance.

Here is my garage and up above is my office. Downstairs it is 24x28 and upstairs is 24x20. I keep my M109, Spyder, and mustang in this one. The attached garage gets the wife's car and my Lightning. I usually take everything out each spring and organize tools, take inventory (one year I had like 3 oil change kits for my lawn mower), and just give the floor a good sweeping and wash. However, this year has been really busy and I haven't done any of that. Therefore, only outside pictures. Just got the wife a new SUV, so now her car sits outside. She wants to put the Lightning out and park her car inside. I told her, "sounds like we need another garage."

Looks like a Ham radio antenna behind the garage?
