    That's a lot of time to spend on a forum with such low footfall! I think you need to get out more!!

    This.

    No idea how long i'm actually on here during the week, but it's open in the background and I browse through the forums every now and then to give my brain a break.

    Yep, you can tell you spend far too long on here when your grammar falls to BikeRadar general acceptance levels :lol:

    Seriously though, the general quality of the language on here seems to be barely above youtube comments and *chan recently.
    Admittedly, the OP isn't the worst example of this, it just got me thinking.

    Good to hear I'm not the only one who thinks they spend too long on here!

    Usually - quick checks of Mtb- general, -workshop, -buying advice on iphone before work and during coffee/toilet breaks. Proper look at lunchtime on desktop. Then at home either on laptop or phone.

    Sometimes I get annoyed with myself for looking at topics that are clearly completely irrelevant to me or anything I'll be able to comment on (not that that stops some), must have wasted countless hours of my life. I like to predict who'll be along to answer various topics.

    Oh and Yeehaa - you missed an 'its' in the last sentence. :D

    Well spotted.
    I shall go forth and fix.

    Anyway, I generally have this open in the background when I'm doing my regular IT monkey job, and check it periodically whilst waiting for updates and such.
    And when I'm in the studio, I'll occasionally have it in the background.

    I'm here too much, It is a good site to read through. Is there a better site for tech help and sarcasm? I think not.

    Work days - scan general, beginners and buyers guide from time to time to give me a break from work. I wander into your rides and pics periodically and very occassionally check the hub and crud.

    I hardly ever come on here on my days off unless its a slow evening.
