Lets start a bike forum
« on: July 13, 2011, 12:52:16 pm »
90% of mail is about Carbon Tax - Are we bored with bikes? Are we having a lean to the green side of life? are we just crusty old mx riders who have had there C/Dirt fix and are in limbo?......lol

Is it any wonder that there's been a mass exodus from the forum? The real reason for this forums very existence has been forgotten by the political science professors and bar room economists over on the carbon tax thread. The last time I looked the forum was called OZVMX not Global Warming Tragics.Com.

If it wasn't for the Classic Dirt Track boys and their great photo thread this forum would be almost totally devoid of anything of any interest to do with old dirt bikes. Jeez ::)
