In case you don't read the Cake Stop forum, we're planning some changes to the layout of the Road section, and one of the affected sections is this one. Please click here and let us know what you think.

    Personally I think that all of the "Workshop" forums on BikeRadar should be unified into one to maximise the helpful replies and cut down on duplicates.

    For example, If I create a thread asking for help indexing my gears I want the most possible answers, regardless of whether the other forums members ride a mountain bike or a road bike. Just because someone rides a slightly different bike doesn't mean they can't help me with my problem.

    Buying advice is different, in that case I think it still makes sense to separate them but not for the workshop.

    Simplify it!!! For Gawds sake!

    I come here very irregularly because BR has become a bloated and busy site with far too many categories in the most absurd places. F'rinstance, if 'Commuting' isn't 'road cycling' for the vast majority of people, what is? 'Track' is under the 'road' heading... why why why? etc

    Regardless of format, I think the mods should try and eliminate the number of duplicate posts - probably by sticking them in FAQs - I find it tedious trawling through the same what wheels / tyres / pedals questions day after day.

    Another section for the ostrich fanboys cheering on their countrymen. I like a good laugh reading that people think there is no doping in pro sports in 2009.
