Still here.  :daumenhoch:

WINI:
Still the best source of OS BMX info this side of the planet.

The percentage of d1cks is much less than the FB groups too, which is nice.

Im still relatively new to the site but here daily/hourly i suppose im guilty of not posting as much as i would like .... been a bit of a rough 18mnths ....funny now i think about it just after i got into the OS BMX scene things went sour with the missus.... i moved into my mothers couldnt stand that for too long but seemed to amass a few more Tange builds...My problem now however is ive moved into a shed on a farm (its a nicely converted building but its a shed) it is small and cheap...but what do i do with my builds and where do i work on them......this is an issue im working on so i can actually get them together and contribute a little with my build threads as opposed to framesets sitting in my mums loft and parts stashed here there and everywhere..to the point i have actually lost track of what parts i have and where the builds have got too...which again irritates me as im sure i miss out on parts i could really do with

I am grateful for those that contribute.... i dont do mug book and always find myself reading just about everything posted .....

Keep Posting and be Rad

Did you see the Feburary BOTM thread?

I admit, then when I post a new build thread and progress it, it feels a little lonely at times, like talking to oneself. However, there are behind the scenes macinations, or better said contacts; I have nearly as many private messages as do actual posts. I wish those private messages were reflected in posts but none-the less. I am sure he won't mind me saying but I have had several 'chats' with SiGhtek over a few months, regarding bikes mostly, but sometimes hinting at 'real life'....and Si you STILL owe me a picture or two of the Shimano. Forums work in many ways.

I have already met a number of people on this site, with similar interests, and yet I am a relative newbie. You get what you put in. If you have to ask 'why is it so quiet' you must first ask yourself why and look at yourself.

The interest, hobby, is bound to cool. If it is old school then we are at, or fast approaching, 50. For me, I 'rediscovered bmx' at 47 so I hope I have a few years left. Others may be from the scene back in the day, I do not know. I admit that I dislike the 'not feeling it' or 'this site is dead' threads. easy to be a 'nay sayer' much harder to actively participate, be it even from one step removed. By that I mean that there have been a few 'not feeling it' threads lately; why not say 'taking a step back lads, still love to see your new builds'.

Yes this forum is quiet. No, I do not go on Facebook, but Yes I will continue posting. Workload has prevented me from experimenting with anodising but it is a thread I will progress, warts and all.

Peace out and sorry for the ramble.
