• 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.

Reported on day one at original thread. Day Two started in Livingston Montana at 7:00AM temp when we arrived last nite was in mid 90's this morning was about 56, Quite a swing. Following the format I used for day one I'll start with the complaints I uncovered: specifically today was the stock horn "its anemic or pathetic" no one can hear you at highway speeds I need to get one of those air horns installed so people will know I'm there.Now the good stuff. I did'nt spit on my visor at all today, see I can learn. Unfortunately I haven't mastered the push to talk button instead of the downshift button did that several times again today. The ride today was from Livingston to Lewisand Clark Natl Park then on to Glacier Natl Park. The ride started out with the temps being cool but pleasant and we had the road to ourselves, as we past through some of the small towns we could smell the fresh cut hay and even better when we passed through Neihart some one was cooking Bacon the smell was awsome if we knew which house it came from we might have tried to get some. A short time later a family of deer(buck,Doe and Fawn) ran accross the road in front of us then paralled us for a while almost as if to say "look at us we're having fun too!" The openness of Montana reallly gave meaning to" BigSky country" . Then we got to Glacier Natl Park all I can say is Wow, I now know why several of you have your cameras mounted on the bike, by the time we stopped and got the camera out or got stopped the scene was gone unless we wanted to back track, definately some learning about taking pictures is in order. Oh another area I need to work on is the twisties one runs into going down our back roads, we hit some good ones the gold wing did great but the spyder and I probably got a 4-6 rating on a scale of 1-10; but', I made it so it couldn"t have been that bad, but my stomach and my heart was sure getting a workout, might need to tighten up those elkas another notch All in all a great day to be alive on the back of my spyder enjoying the awesome creation that God has layed out for us especially with NO news to ruin it. Later.
 
I love those "wow" days when the scenery is so gorgeous all you can say is wow. You'll have a lot of those on your trip for sure.
