And, how long do you think you'll use it for?
Since before STW was STW. (Go-far) - so >10 years.
No idea.
WHAT?! YOU"LL HAVE TO SPEAK UP LOVE. I USED TO COME HERE WHEN IT WAS ALL FIELDS!
I'VE STILL GOT ALL MY OWN TEETH YOU KNOW
About 6 years mostly under a different username.
I tend to get a bit bored of the arguments and infighting and stop visiting the site about once a year but so far I keep coming back. Can't see that pattern changing.
Sheesh, posting inane stuff on here rather than reply to my email, get your priorities sorted!! 😛
Since 2004 i think. No idea how long i'll use it for, til i get bored/can't access the internet from the ocean 😀
Too.
Some.
No idea!
03/04 iirc
this is my final post.
I logged on in the early noughties to sell a mojo.
Been taking it seriously since 2003 though, hope to keep it up long into retirement.
Not sure when it started, or why, or how long it will last.
I get bored of the whole thing periodically and then interested again. I do like being able ask just about any question and get an answer. It's a querulous google lite type thing.
2009 🙁
Just a few months, still on honeymoon 🙂
about 2 weeks used, about 1 day left.
Killed some time while I was off work is all. Most of you are ****s.
what a ****ing amateur use it at work dont use it when off work
noobs 🙄
Most of you are ****
Fair point. Well made.
Well, "deadly" was my...
Oh, sorry, wrong answer.
Erm, I dunno.
Erm, I dunno.
Longer than you for both though.
A year-ish? Til I win a WC event.
Too long - since Issue One, when was that?
2002, but I did go walkabout 2004-08.
I remember the exodus of loads of Surrey Hills/ND riders to Chocolate Foot. Can't say that was the most civilised of places to hang out though.
Er, a long time. 10 years, I'd guess (under another name previously).
Crikey.
...since Issue One, when was that?
You see that 10th Anniversary flash on the front of the mag?
That's a clue. 🙄
2004ish I reckon
2002 I think.
I got a login in 2003 as I wanted to sell a bike. Not sure how long I'll stay, I guess as long as I continue to be entertained...
EDIT: I have all the magazines (1 to 66 with two copies of issue 17 for some strange reason) but I've just cancelled my subscription so I guess that's going to end. (Went to Dirt for a change).
About 7 to 8 years.
Since just before Issue 1. About the time it went from GoFar to Singletrack.
probably since the same year the very first SITS was . . .
there were 2 motley crew teams put together, basically people who were billy no mates, but who all came on here.
Made a good friend out of it, anyone else still nocking about?
11 years, didn't need an account to post on the forum back then so I usually just logged-in manually and that's the reason I stuck with such a short username.
I think the correct answer is:
'I was here first, with a single speeder before bikes were invented and before niche was anything but a term to describe a specific environmental setting.'
I had to check my posting history in my profile to find out.
45 pages in 2 years.
Not long.
Quite a while I imagine.
A long time - since the Go-Far days.
A long time ago.
I don't frequent the place much anymore, but do occasionally look in to check that some people are alive, and that the rest of you are still rehashing what's been written here a hundred times before.
Joined last week. I am not impressed
since go-far
Not sure how long, before the magazine started though
A year and a half when I bought a frame off the classifieds 😛
Disappeared for a while but I came back...funnily enough when I was avoiding revision!
Since about 80ish bikes ago 😆 . Sheesh, this site has a lot to answer for 😈
Actually I even remember my first post - asking whether it was OK to file down a cassette cog to make the teeth longer for singlespeed use 😳 - Brant replied iirc. Oh, and yes, it did work . . . sort of 😉 (niche ratio or what 😆 )
asking whether it was OK to file down a cassette cog to make the teeth longer for singlespeed use
you know you can also file a whole tooth off completely to increase the gear ratio too?
I think I found gofar but never really returned and definitely didn't post on it - wasn't much into the internet then & hardly ever went on at home due to ded slow connection
Found stw proper maybe 9yr ago I guess, when I got broadband
😆 @ Stoner - must try that sometime 😉
😆 @ Stoner - must try that sometime 😉
Oh and in answer to the OP - before STW went ***s up allowing double posts.
Since I signed up.
Not as long as some, but longer than others.
I feel my interest waning.
- a few years ago,
- not sure but probably for quite a while.
