Just wondering if you have been surfing the forum and if so have you found it interesting. Have you been bored with some of the content or have you kinda fell into it, you know the Bike Talk and stuff. I think you have been on the forum long enough, that if you have checked it out, a brief comment from a straight outsider on this forum would probably be worth while for the administraters and members alike,
Your response!
Good evening V! I have and think it is an excellent website (tho sounds like there have been some issues with uploading pics from time to time). I have older brothers and dad used to pull anything with a motor apart and put it back together again with them all the time. I loved it and was always lurking around, so I know just enough to be dangerous mechanically! All the bike tinkering happened before my time, but from the forum it is easy to pick most of it up with a bit of poking around. Some of the jargon or the brand naming throws me but after awhile you get the gist. It also feels like you could ask any sort of technical Q and not be treated like a idiot for doing so.
That being said, I was planning on getting my license before the MR came along and that means buying a bike. So info on the technical side has been helpful as well and it is good to know that I'll (hopefully!) have a few people to help me out when the time comes to make a choice. Having the ladies contributing technically and socially as well is choice.
A lot of other sites could learn from this one. I usually don't hang around forums of any type as they get too blah but here the members have been excellent - respectful of others and very helpful across the board. The site is easy to navigate and simple to achieve what you want to achieve, plus it's fantastic for a laugh. It's all good, and has my vote!
