Cheers Ant.

Thanks for the kind words lads.

It was a total shock to be honest, getting the pm off Nick today. I sat for a while and thought that it was a mistake or a joke. I messaged him back and asked a few questions, first being why??  ???

I'm no different to anyone else on the forum, I just love bikes and banter. I also wasn't sure if the forum needed anymore Mods, but that wasn't my decision to make. I was also a bit apprehensive too as there are some serious contenders for Mod status that I personally would have put way before me, some I mentioned to Nick. I'll be the first to admit that my knowledge is far off par to numerous more established members on here.

It's fair to say that my love for the hobby died a bit in June/July, but going to MK, getting my childhood bike, visiting Carl after losing his mum, the Wigan toy ride, and meeting the lads in London have all really restored and refuelled my love for the hobby which all centres around this forum, and what a forum.

I have been messaging Nick over the past few months regarding various ideas to improve things, and made suggestions to him, so I guess I was a consideration from that, but I certainly didnt expect this, I was just in the right place at the right time, luckily having an office job means I'm always logged on to RAD, so rarely miss a new thread.

We have a great forum with a top bunch of fellas, I just hope I can help the Team continue to drive it forward, keeping it fresh and keeping the interest from the members, without whom, we wouldn't have RAD.

Peace and love Brothers.

A good point well made in this thread is.............


Having Dan on board, is like a 'members mod' if you know what I mean, so hopefully he can put to bed any nonsense about stuff like judging at MK for example.......something discussed with him previously.


I like the idea of Norty40 and Badbaldie being mods too, so maybe, as an idea, these guys could join forces and do the voting at MK and or be considered, by you, the Radsters as Mods in the future.

It's not really for me or the other admin to make folks mods, so maybe we ask you guys on who we could consider next?

How does that sound?

Post by: dancetothedrummersbeat on January 01, 2014, 12:32 AM
**edited my post** just saw your reply Lenny. The following opinion applies to you also...  +1 on the suggestion for Joff to be offered the position of mod. One of the best lads you could meet and passionate about all things bmx & the bmx community spirit. No doubt there are plenty of others who are more than deserving also, but two great suggestions of Joff (and Lenny) made there

Maybe a good idea to have poll for a new mod/mods at this time of year? Sort of like a RAD new years honours list? People nominate a person they think would be a good mod, then the members vote on it....

And to keep the thread on topic, congratulations again Dan.

Post by: NORTY40 on January 01, 2014, 04:02 AM
Im flattered to be mentioned lads   :)  but i do agree that choosing a new mod by RADsters nominating and voting is the way to go . There's loads of lads who are deserving of a position on the team .

I think what Lenny has done with the rides and especially the charity toy ride speaks volumes about the guy , he would make a great addition to the team and get my vote  ;)

Happy New Year lads and well done again Dan  :daumenhoch:

Thanks Dan,

as a Mod I've been asked to do a review on people that are crucial figures that people depend on to get their bikes to show standard.

This means I have to come and take a look at people's businesses, to make sure people's cash is being well spent. As yours is a big firm, and turns out a lot of frames, it may take 2 days.

Is it ok for me to stay overnight @ Chateau Purcell?   :angel:
