    It refers to a few threads that have been tagged by the moderators to stay at the top of the page - mainly highlighting info about the forum, or some popluar threads.

    And welcome :D

    Are you wanting to start an undignified thread listing things, tenuously linked to cycling, that are sticky?

    (leaves room after pregnant pause...)

    No, I just haven't been on the bike as much as I'd like.

    I was going to say "watch out for the forthcoming innuendo" lizro, but it appears you have already self-briefed!

    Welcome :)

    a sticky will be visable at the top of the first page of a forum while an announcement will be visible at the top of all pages of that forum.

    in commuting we have one sticky and Zero announcements at this moment.

    the situation can change at any time.
