Sorry to see you go. I have to agree with much of what you are saying. My problem with the change is not so much in the new interface or look. In fact I have to say that the new linterface has a more modern feel, and look, but that comes at a price to those of us who are accessing the internet using dial up. It takes much longer to load the pages. In fact, sometimes it won't load at all, and I give up frustrated, and go elsewhere. I think this new interface is more resource "hungry" than the old one.
Good luck to you.

I’ve let my feelings known to the administrators but it looks like its full speed ahead to them.
I pretty much spent most of my time here and the commuting forum. This subforum is much more like a family, though, with the friendliness and smallness. Hence, the need for a goodbye. I’ll probably still google for bike repair and upgrade advice and the bike forums archive threads “should” come up so I’ll use that.
I’ve been more productive at work since I don’t click on the BF in the morning and the afternoon(ha-ha). I’ll still be biking and you can still catch up with my goings-on in my blog:

Stay well, keep riding, and Happy Thanksgiving!
