Why I love this site

[ClockworkOrange]

After reading zombeav's thread (No sympathy, please) I began to think!

I enjoy coming on this site because I do not have to prove myself to anybody, I am far from being athletic or even much of a cyclist in comparison with others although I am passionate about my bike and riding.

At then end of it all the majority of us have all had or are having problems of some sort, be it health, relationships, family, finances or just what bike to buy.

When I am going through a bad time for whatever reason, I come on here and am cheered up, or I read about somebody a lot worse off than me.

I also love the diverse replies that appear and that is not a bad thing either, again because of the anonymity, sometimes we can be slightly more honest when replying than we would if we were face to face.

Whatever odd thread I have posted, generally I have received such a lot of advice and help.

Great site but even greater people on here.

Hugs from over the pond.

We luv ya, clock!

I love this place. Even when we disagree with others, it seems we do it in a way that is still respectful- and that's very much appreciated!

[Koronin]

I agree. I also love this place.

Nice to just hang out and chat up about stuff about bikes or other stuff.

Guess if we looked at people's online name and when they joined, we've got some long time members!

And hugs back from this side of the pond...

Hey Clock, would you post a bigger picture of that orange bike in the signature please? You know we like to see bikes...

I wish I had a TE for every area of my life.

[smittykitty]

Yes, TE is the best! I stumbled on it cuz I just needed a little advice on biking. I learned in a hurry it is great for that, but soooo much more.

I left the site for a long time when I found out I couldn't ride anymore. But I missed you gals so much I just had to log back on and see what everyone was up to.
