Pardon if I'm off topic but I have a quick question.

I've been browsing the rec.bicylces.rides and other rec.bicycles
usenet groups via google, and they seem completely full of spam
except
for this post.

I hope this isn't a stupid question but are there some actual
users
dialoguing on here regularly or is it all spam?

If so, how many people are actually regularly participating and
how do
you use this group with so much spam?

Up to a few weeks ago, r.b.m and r.b.r. were good newsgroups.

Now we are awash with spam and silly posts. Some regulars have
become discouraged.

A news feed that filters most of the spam solves the problem.
