I’m old, and I’m still here from time to time.
 I’ve never raced or moved in those circles.  I’ve always been a lone trail hack and moved to moderns as time evolved, but love old bikes and tinkering on them. This forum has always been a wealth of knowledge, I poke my head in occasionally but there’s not much traffic anymore, but that seems the same for most forums. I think the instant phone access to social media seems to have caused that.

As a relative newcomer to the forum, it is great to knpw some of the forum history. I joined to gain proper information which is difficult to find. Social media sites are full of incorrect information and advice from "Knuckle heads". I believe well administeted forums are the modern day encyclopaedias with the correct information.

I see no value in expousing rubbish information and theories.

I also find these forums one of the best sources of information.
Many experienced experts, willing to help.

A valuable resource, where often answers can be found by searching the archives.

Facebook has too many idiots “contributing”, and I find, even recent posts impossible to find once the algorithm decides you should be interested in something else.

My thanks to the people running, and those contributing to, this forum.

There is still lots of interest in VMX, and the bikes.
The recent event at Conondale sold out weeks in advance (500 riders I believe.)
