Is it not about time all talk of road biking was banished from stw
Why?
well, you've suffered more than most - what with being on here nearly 24 hours now
Its a forum for a mtb mag is it not !
[i]Its a forum for a mtb mag is it not[/i]
there's a magazine?
No it's a cycling forum, specializing in MTB-ing. I haven't read the mag for a while but they used to include articles that weren't mtb specific...
Anyways your the friday troll and I claim my £5.
Really? First post? Really?
Mods just shut this shit down.
....oh and have a look to see which of our illustrious members started a dummy account to troll this poorly.
So we shouldn't talk about anything except mtbs?
Your going to need one of these if this is your first post.

ATBs FFS 🙂
Is there no other Friday threads going yet,this one is a bit lame 😉
You'll get no sympathy here but I have to admit that I feel more than a little uneasy knowing that there are people out there that ride road bikes.. It makes me feel slightly queasy to think that some of their perverse sweat may drip onto the trails that I ride..
Your going to need one of these if this is your first post.
First post with this account.
No way damn n00bs gonna get all up in STW's grill 4realz straight off da bat LOlz.
edit - on reflection, why would I want to bother with this one?
You'll need some of this too...

Last survey we did around 40% of users claimed to commute to work at least once a week by bike! That was a surprise! Further questions about what sort of bikes they owned crystalised our view that our readers are 'cyclists with a lot of mountain bikes' 🙂
I have a road bike!
With a thread like this, we need to get some experts on the case.

...and he got £50000 from Penguin biscuits to go to see penguin birds!
Anyhooo , are roadbikes not just 29ers with slick tyres and drop bars ?
😀

Did they not smell something fishy ?

Do you reckon Mars would pay me to go to Uranus?
Colder, but still happy.

penguin in a rally car. that would be ace.
there is a penguin in a red hat that lives in my van. I think Percy might be a love child of tom and a penguin!!
for your next thread talk about roadies being on the road and slowing you down perhaps suggest they are gay as well.

Sorry to disapoin but I aint a troll, simply stating facts. Far to much rd biking on here it should at least be on chat page !
I suspect OP has had too many rides now where his MTB chums who also ride road bikes have left him for dust due to superior fitness...
Well if it isn't a troll - hard to believe - you may want to check out somewhere like Pink Bikes or Dirt instead 😉
As it is, this place if perfect for me. I'm not roadie enough for a road bike forum but I do like riding on the road. Frankly, some of the road rides where I live are much nicer than the off-roading. I embrace it all...
...apart from maybe singlespeeds and fixies 🙂
You seem very confused about facts are 40% of the bike threads about road bikes or commuting?
You have alse put your road thread on the bike thread not the chat section ...... I like people who dont follow their own advice so respect.
Sorry to disapoin but I aint a troll, simply stating facts. Far to much rd biking on here it should at least be on chat page !
Rather than the 'Bike Forum'.

Try taking these letters and inserting them in the correct positions in your post

Or is spelling just for roadies ?
Dissapoin'T',I 'am not',stating 'the' facts,r'OA'd,on 'the' chat page,full stop and new sentence after "biking on here".
If you are going to be an arsht(sic) at least have the common decency to use the correct grammar and punctuaton.
I suspect someone has an INSET day today.
Rather than the 'Bike Forum'.
Stop trollin'
....also stop hatin'

Lets ban all the skinny armed smooth legged pasta eating bannana peeling pothole pointing leery colour wearing gel wrapper dropping weight obsessed two abreast riding cyclists..... then all the big armed hairy legged camoflage wearing rucksack carrying burger eating beer drinking overbiked armour covered stopping every five minutes on the trail cyclists can...what was this thead about?

Who? Rorschach the frustrated teacher?
I'll be suprised if there is not red pen all over his monitor.
Oh my check out those pecs 8)
Shame about the necklace though. 😕
so c-g is not a fan of pearl knecklaces
Is disappointed
Also hope he has not overstepped the mark was meant to be funny
I totally agree with the OP, I've nothing against road bikes but I don't want to read about them on a forum of an MTB mag.
There's a link to road.cc on every page - not to difficult to use it if you want to talk about road bikes.
Then the thread turns in to a childish spelling & punctuation attack - fairly sad.
*chuckles @ JY*

Then, y'know, don't open those threads YOU HAVE THE POWER!
[i]Who? Rorschach the frustrated teacher?[/i]
sorry, no, the OP.
Maybe we should write a browser plugin that removes any threads with the word road in, might save this sort of thread popping up.
Mark Datz lives!
Then, y'know, don't open those threads YOU HAVE THE POWER!
Yawn
I wouldn't need THE POWER if the forum was kept on topic & they weren't put there in the first place.
This subject comes up time after time & always causes problems - time the mods sorted it out.
What if I ride a cyclocross bike? Is there no where for me?
In fairness today, I am mostly riding an all steel, singlespeed, unusual brand road type bike, with some bling parts, and that is far more in touch with what this forum is about than any mountain bike!
Yawn
If you were not so sleepy, you would have noticed the owner, and one mod, have already contributed to this thread, stating their reasons for allowing roadie stuff.
[i]if the forum was kept on topic[/i]
it's the 'bike forum', not the 'mtb forum'?
always causes problems - time the mods sorted it out.
yes lets keep the religion threads but down with this sort of thing 🙄
I think only a few mtbers seem to get irrate about this tbh.
We have car threads on here surely that is worse?

So that's where the thread on my off road trip went 🙄 😀
This is just because a few people are bored, isn't it??? 😕
It's the non Mountain Mayhem attenders feeling left out, I think.

The internet is serious business.
Look. We all know roadies have issues, a bit hard of thinking and rather dull. Treat them as you would your retarded little brother - condescendingly and give 'em a good slap when mum is not looking.
If it's a problem now wait till Le Tour starts!
I wouldn't need THE POWER if the forum was kept on topic & they weren't put there in the first place.
It's a Bike Forum to talk about riding bikes, the fact that it's owned by a MTB Magazine means there's more MTB than road bikers. But as everyone is entitled to do both or neither and even dare I say it other things too they can chat about it. Bike chat for the bike forum and all other chat in they er chat forum.
.
I am an MTBer, but I also have a road bike.. am I forbidden from talking about it? If so:
Kona Zing, Ultegra/105 mix 🙂
I'm (road) bike-curious
