The Dune/Wazoo cheap fatbike era.
Badger's tubeless incompetence thread cost me a keyboard.
His meltdowns over the art work was a thing to behold.
Anyway, kid with the full face and 661 peejays.
You went out for a ride and came back and the last topic you were engaged in had slipped on to page 2. Now you'd have to go out and do the Badger Divide (or Mountain Mayhem - rip Pat) for that to happen.
Edit - and long discussions about MTB events were once a thing.

Could someone just photoshop this photo of me on my BMX ....
Joined: Dec 26, 2008That's what my account says... but pretty sure I joined before that. Dunno. Lots of our old accounts say Xmas '08. My memory fails me a to why that is.[ I've ignored the OP, sorry ]
The great hack of Winter 2008.
Everything went back to zero due to some kid in Norfolk. (My memory of location may be fuzzy)
Pre-hack.
I could tell you.......... but I'd then have to come round and hammer frozen sausages into your lawn
And the first time I met chipps he turned me upside down and inspected my bottom bracket......... 😳
TJ was still a nurse riding tandems when I landed.Its really gone downhill since then.

Stoner manges to go completely offgrid......... awesome feat mate.

^ that's lead to a grammatical conundrum for me. Does that linkage of possessives need an apostrophe on each? The flag belongs to the daughter, the daughter belongs to the parent, etc.
So, the parent, described here as the owner belongs to the cat....but hang on, surely the definition of owner is that it owns the cat. Can you simultaneously own and be owned by something? And if there's a living creature that owns its owners, then a cat's it.
a couple of Big Hitters............ ;o)

You say this but, the I think the first time I met Chipps everything went downhill fast.
We were at a ski slope.
Frozen sausages, mallets and lawns
Skoda estate. What was the question again?

Allthegear/Rachel - hounded away by bigots 😟
I hope she is doing well. She'd have been a great source of lived experience here as the world navigates a backwards step in excepting each other.
I have no idea of interesting topic.
There's a ride out to celebrate the new offices in Todmorden.
The answer to which bike is 'an Inbred'
The answer to which tyre is 'Specialized Ground Control'
The one where Hora told the world that he had a 'beautiful penis'. That was, erm, odd.
Being in top ten forum posters in the mag is my proudest moment
I thought that, and then I made the shortlist for the Big Hitters feature, but not the final cut
I've just remembered a great story about Hora. He'd agreed to buy a bike (might have been a frame) from Gingerflash* and they'd agreed a price of something like £300.
So he drove over to Leeds and when he got to Gingerflash's house he said "will you take "£287.60, cos I came out with the £300 cash but spent £12.40 on an indian takeaway on the way over"
(Numbers made up, but you get the jist)
And then when he opened the car to but the bike/frame in, the takeaway had spilt all over the boot...
*Gingerflash and MrsFlash being well-remembered as the Posh and Becks of the forum
And the first time I met chipps he turned me upside down and inspected my bottom bracket.........
The only time I've met Chipps he may have been hungover and was not overly sociable (on the STW stand at a bike show at Earls Court, I think). Cy Turner was much friendlier but he had recently taken my money for an original Soul!
