• 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.

    2026 Deadwood 3 Wheeler Rally Accomplishment

    I spoke at some length with Michele at First Gold Gaming today and learned a few things that may be of interest to future D3WR attendees. First, she explained that FGG goes in the hole every year putting on the event, largely because it must rent both the physical facility and the tents from the...

    2026 Deadwood 3 Wheeler Rally Accomplishment

    Yes, Lightning, I am he. Our paths haven't crossed because we haven't been headed to the same place at the same time. A year or so ago I took a tip from you and visited a fruitcake place on a Saturday and had a good ride with some good food. Jay

    Comparing how we ride our Spyders - what does your trip meter say??

    Like many, I use Trip A for my tank fill up record. Trip B is for multiday junkets, the latest D3WR, that was 4,086. What is important when on tour is that my touring partner's F3 has different gear ratios that cause his engine to run about 550 rpm higher in top gear than my RT. That means I...

    2026 Deadwood 3 Wheeler Rally Accomplishment

    The big difference as I see it between D3WR and other rallies, many of which no longer exist, is that it is put on by a commercial activity while the latter have been conducted by Spyder centered activities, i.e., Spyder clubs/riding groups. Yes, there are select commercial entities, e.g...

    2026 Deadwood 3 Wheeler Rally Accomplishment

    Yes, I am the sole owner and have put all the miles on it. I also keep records of all the work done on the roadster. I am fortunate that it had only one warranty claim, a parking brake motor replaced a bit over a year after taking possession. My B.E.S.T. extended warranty expired unused. I had...

    Is anyone else Running out of fuel like this?

    My touring partner has an F3 that in top gear runs about 550 rpm more than my RT. As a result I'm alert for refueling stops when my trip meter hits 140 - 150 miles. This system works well for us and gives old butts a break too.

    Having a blast, but have you noticed these Spyders Take an Effort To Ride?!

    I liken it sometimes to motorcycle sidecar racing with the exception being you're your own monkey.

    Are there any decent Sun covers for when Spyders are parked?

    Unexplained drained battery - anyone else? Any help/ideas?

    In both cases with replacement batteries I installed Yuasa YTX24HL batteries in which my multimeter said did not need charging but I still put them on the battery tender for 24 hours before starting the roadster and got better than 5 and 6 1/2 years, respectively out of them.
