    I'm assuming all of the content from the old cake stop will appear on here or be archived somewhere we can get at? Still intrigued by whether I can post a pic or not...

    It all just seems a little unfamiliar. Its like moving into a new house.
    I suppose we'll all get used to it!

    You mean a cat has to pee all over it to make it 'home'?

    Come on, I need more inspiration about my name. Arrch was suggested, very piratical, but looks a bit like a typo. I thought of Archie, but that'll make even more people think I'm a bloke. Oh, except my name shows up now, doesn't it? I could become a saint, but that would make me Starch. I suppose I do like pasta.

    Bah. I'm sulking now. And it's raining. Again.

    Yes, my vote is that "MTB" is moved to the end - as the newcomer you understand...to save the index finger ligaments. :wink:

    Hey we now have a rolleyes smiley :roll: :roll: :roll:

    Looks like it... 04_Specialized_Roubaix_Comp_Road_Bike_54cm_Carbon_Fiber.jpg

    Clicky

    EDIT: That's odd, it worked in the preview frist time around, and I'm sure I've seen pictures over on the MTB forum. :?

    EDIT 2: It doesn't help when the ".jpg" part of the image link gets missed.

    Once you've logged in, click on "Road" at the top of the page, then click "forum" and the road index should be at the front.

    No!

    Shan't.

    So there.

    Don't like it. It's nasty.

    I may have to retreat to the Clubhouse and get Jarvis to fetch me a stiff one.

    HELLO!
    I'm here in the playground! Is there anyone familiar out there? I want to be near/with my friends! :oops:

    Otherwise I'll have to either do things on my own, or try and make new friends!
    I think I'm already registerd on this site from before but can't remember those details as I didn't frequent it too often. That's soon to change, though.
    Where are you all, Cycling+ forumers? :cry:
    I get knocked down . . . but I get up again . . .

    We should all huddle over here in a corner for safety.

    Just make sure Patrick doesn't get any funny ideas.

    Oh, deep joy!
    Thanks Ravenbait, great vocals you have! :wink:
    Noodley! Glad to here your Scottish accent, too! :lol:
    Friends, how relieved I am. Thought I'd ended up on a deserted forum in a parrallel hyberspace thing!
    This is going to take a while to find my feet; and I feel sorry for all the forumers who have suddenly been given 20,000+ half brothers and sisters! :D

    I've already tried to touch you in another thread just to see if things are real. And have you seen what they've done to my post count!!!!!!!!! No longer will redcogs be fearful of me. :cry:

    Will there be a thread somewhere so we can point out bugs and ask for changes? Some little changes would be helpful.

    Aye. If we're going to put up with all this craziness, they might at least let us have avatars.

    What the.....!!!????

    What kinda waste of time was this forum change!!!?? No avatars!? My sig is suddenly too long!? The smilie smilie is not as nice as the old board's smilie smilie!! The only advantage seems to be the animated tears of the cryng smilie and a rolling eyes smilie. :cry:
    I'd rather walk than use Shimano

    Yeah, there's a space for 'avatar' in the profile, but no option anywhere to upload one.

    It was Dayvo - I'd just been winding him up at "the old place" about not getting let in here.
