Where'd everybody go?
I've been away for a while and nothings the same in this NG. There used to be ride reports, hints and tips for repairs, bikes, places to ride. All gone? What happened here? DTW

What happened here? Sadly, as a group we couldn't ignore the trolls. A few old timers are still here but it seems many have moved on. Spokejunkies has a few old regulars, and I imagine MTBR got some too. Greetings, I am new to the group, but have just been lurking for a few days. The group is Troll infested. But I am just getting back into mountain biking now, as my youngest child (age 11) is now at the age I can take him across the easier North Vancouver trails. So I am looking for a community to talk mountain biking with. What is Spokejunkies and MTBR? And are there still mountain biking regulars here? Danny Aldham

Danny Aldham www.spokejunkies.com www.mtbr.com both are web based groups. SJ is more centrally located in Ohio, USA but has recently expanded west as some members have moved. MTBR is a multi-national website with a lot of different localized forums such as http://forums.mtbr.com/forumdisplay.php?f=84 for western canucks. Just add LIBERATOR to your plonk list along with Mike Vandeman & Ed Dolan or any one that replies to them and you'll cut out 90-95% of the crap. Hope this helps.

I still check back with reasonable regularity, but there hasn't been much going on besides Libby ranting to an empty house. There's not much motivation to post when it's not clear that more than one or two die-hards are going to even see it. FWIW, I have never really liked web-based forums: Usenet, despite its age, is still technically far superior to any web forum I have seen. Last one out, turn out the lights. CC PS: Matt, I'm not sure if I will be swinging through your neck of the woods. I'm pretty much settled on hitting Tabeguache when I'm out in CO, despite the Freak's misgivings about towing a load on my old Fisher frame. I'll get in touch out of band.

You are only allowed to talk about ME in this newsgroup. Shame on you. DTW -- I am working on creating wildlife habitat that is off-limits to humans ("pure habitat"). Want to help? (I spent the previous 8 years fighting auto dependence and road construction.) Please don't put a cell phone next to any part of your body that you are fond of! http://home.pacbell.net/mjvande
