That's it from me folks. This forum is now officially crap, so you'll find me at CycleChat and the League of Gentleman Cyclists in future. It's been fun, cheers.

    I looked in at Cycle Chat....looks likes its full of beginners. their version of Know How looks rather empty. :?
    I'd rather walk than use Shimano

    This is not a dig at anybody who has decided to move on - just my thoughts on the changes.

    would have been better if the insert img code had worked.






    Had the same on another forum - people leaving in highly public manner.

    My personal feeling is that an email or post to the site admin staff is needed, followed by a brief cheerio to members if wanted, followed by no more posting.


    Transition to new forum hasn't gone as smoothly as it might.

    Screen less easy to read. Text too small, colours too bright.

    Some people had to re register because their names got screwed.

    Most threads have now migrated.

    Road/Forum only takes 2 clicks or a new favourite/bookmark.

    People change partner, homes, jobs, countries with less bother.
  • just press OPTION KEY AND + and the screen will get bigger. Alternatively do it from the menu system

    I may take a look elsewhere. I have to say at the moment there isn't the same sort of personal feel to this site. I abandoned a similar rugby based site because it was too impersonal, too big and full of opinionated tossers. But I will give it a try first.
    Baby elephants are so last year, darling.

    i'm giving cyclechat a try, but i'll still be here untill there's a tipping point that turns cyclechat into essentialy c+ in exile.

    Hmmm. "Crap" might have been a bit strong, with hindsight. But it's not as good as it was. Anyway, I keep popping in for a look and finding things I want to reply to, so for now I seem to be still here. :roll:

    Are you avoiding ACF for any reason?

    Has Pete Biggs made it over here yet? Our KnowHow is going to be pretty hollow without him. Losing people like Pete would be the biggest indictment of this wretched mess.

    Rhythm Thief!
    As I said before, 'United we stand...'

    If we give it a week or so to get over the teething problems and initial shock, then hopefully it'll be ok.
    I miss the friendliness, cosiness, mischieviousness, wit etc. of C+, but if 'we' stay togetherthen maybe a kind of compromise can be made.
    I certainly don't want to lose touch with a lot of you, and even look forward to making new 'mates'.
    As the saying goes: Make new friends, but keep the old; new friends are silver but the old are gold!
    Even after only 20 months as a forumer! :lol:
    I get knocked down . . . but I get up again . . .

    Well, as I'm going to have to restrict myself to one or the other, I'm off to Cyclechat - now that most of the people I want to chat with are there...

    See you over there!
    If I had a baby elephant, it could help me clean the car. If I had a car.
