Where has everyone gone?

Evening all. All those who are left...

I have been absent from MTB for a long while but am slowly edging my way back in.
When I was last keen, this forum was a hive of activity with tonnes of amazing info and anecdotes and I have very fond memories of finding my feet here.

I came back to find...tumbleweed and dust, s strong smell of mothballs and some bluebottles buzzing at a cracked window pane.

Where has everyone gone?!?

Heres hoping there are some folk still around!

One fine day in the middle of the night, two dead men got up to fight. Back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each other.

    Singletrack forum is a lot more active on the MTB side of things.

    Not sure why it died, I think people just drifted away and the forum lost the critical mass needed to keep things going. There are a few of us ex-Crudders who also do roadie stuff over in the Bottom Bracket forum, hopefully that'll keep going for a while longer.

    I suspect some was down to the e-bike banter / abuse.

    Completely missed that, but I'm sure it was completely justified :)
