Great, Thanks

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.

update
Just a few more specifics on the ride:
Leave from the Leavenworth Safeway parking lot at 10 AM on Saturday June 13, 2015
The route outlined provides rivers, mountains, lakes, coulees, desert, and a nice variety of
two lane roads. There are plenty of opportunities for checking out road side attractions
along the way as well.
Leavenworth to Wenatchee via Rt 2 20 miles
Wenatchee to Chelan via ALT 97 39 miles
Chelan to Pateros via ALT 97 and 97 21 miles
Pateros to Twisp via Rt 153 34 miles
Twisp to Winthrop via Hwy 20 9 miles
Lunch in Winthrop
Winthrop to Omak via Hwy 20 46 miles
Omak to Coulee Dam via Rt 155 55 miles
Total miles for the day 224.
Lodging at Columbia River Inn, 10 Lincoln Ave, Coulee Dam, Wa 800-633-6421
Laser Light show at Grand Coulee Dam
Sunday AM departure, about 9 AM
Coulee Dam to Dry Falls Jct via Rt 155 and Rt 2 29 miles
Dry Falls Jct to Soap Lake via Rt 17 23 miles
There are a couple of options for returning to Leavenworth, so depending on who is riding and where
they plan to end up Sunday evening the return route has some flexibility. From Soap Lake to Leavenworth via
Wenatchee on Rt 28 and Hwy 2 is 76 miles, making a total of 128 from Coulee Dam to Leavenworth. The original
route, which is still a possibility if folks are interested, is about an additional 100 miles back to Leavenworth.
At this point several folks have indicated they hope to participate and the folks from Spokane that are headed over to Leavenworth
that weekend are considering joining us for the ride up to Winthrop. So.... I don't really know how many will make the ride but we
look forward to meeting whoever is up for the trip at 10 AM in Leavenworth! Feel free to
PM me if you want to confirm that you are joining us, or if you need ideas for Leavenworth lodging, etc. Nick

It was good to meet you desertryder during our stay in leavenworth, didn't seem like the ones who said they were going made it unless you met up somewhere else after you left safeway. Anyway we thoroughly enjoyed our time in your wonderful town.

Thanks for the posts; we were kind of surprised that no one showed up for the ride Saturday but we went anyway and had a great time. I understand its a busy time of year for everybody. For those who want to check out the Grand Coulee light show the hotel worked out fine, it was clean and comfortable and all you do is walk across the street to the visitor center to check out the laser light show.
