Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes.

Hello,

second try to find a "good" domain name for our homepage.

I plan to to bike around the world with my girl friend next year. Which of the 10 domains do you like most (you can choose more than one if you want)?

It should
1. be not to long,
2. easy to remember
3. has to do something with "bike", "travelling", "around the world" etc.
4. .de and .com domains available (as we want to have a German part and an English part)
5. be kind of funny if possible ;-)

Thanks and kind regards,
Christof

Thanks for the votes so far. It seems that I have to order worldwheeling.de and worldwheeling.com even if it's not my favourite one. Will wait for some more votes...

Christof

PS: You can select more than one url if you want.

Just one question to all you native speakers: What does world wheeling / worldwheeling mean exactly? Of course I know what "world" and "to wheel" mean, but perhaps together it has a special meaning.

Mille gratie,
Christof

Exciting poll! I just wonder why nobody except of me likes bikealong.com? Was thinking about "come along", "sing along", "bike along".

Finally our homepage is online. We went for www.worldwheeling.de (http://www.worldwheeling.de) and www.worldwheeling.com (http://www.worldwheeling.com). Thanks you all for helping us with the name of the domain. Just have a look if you want. The page is in German up to now, English content will follow later this year. But there are already a lot of pictures of our bikes (http://www.worldwheeling.de/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=12&Itemid=41), of our tours (http://www.worldwheeling.de/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=38) and of us (http://www.worldwheeling.de/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21&Itemid=52) online. You can also sign in for our newsletter if you want.

Kind regards,
Christof

Cool site & nice drivetrain setup on the bikes! No fiddling w/deraileurs & you'll probably have double the chain life.

No problem. There's allways a translator (?babbelfish)-and I need to seriously brush up on my German anyways.

I hope your German is pefect now ;-)

We put some new stuff on our site. There are some more pictures in our gallery (http://www.worldwheeling.de/index.php?option=com_wrapper&Itemid=38) for all of you who do not speak German. English part still to come.

Regards,
Christof
