I come here to pass the time during my dull work days. What about you?
1. To alleviate the boredom.
2. For the camaraderie.
3. For bike related info.
4. For the humour.
5. To show everyone how superior I am in my knowledge of everything.
But for me the main thing is that unlike other social media it is not a echo chamber. Its good to get diverse opinions and to have your views challenged
Originally for bike-related advice but now for the laughs and watching people explode arguing with each other about the most insignificant things. But then I do like people watching…
The honest answer is that the last mountain bike forum I was on closed down a few months ago without warning ..guess the owner had his reasons.
It was fairly small (100 members) but very succesful in arranging regular forum rides ..with a good vibe between the members ..
I’m really just getting to know folks on here ..but one or two of the other forum guys contribute from time to time ..no one else from our local group of riders though.
I’ve always liked a bit of banter to get through the day as I work from home and most days I’m on my own ..
Quite enjoying it so far ..
