I think the whole site is more sedate than I'd like. I came here almost by accident after being banned from another bike site (pretty much innocently--I had originally registered under a screen name, then went back and registered under my real name when I realized there was no reason to use an alias. When I got a short ban for political comment regarding GWB, I logged in under the old name, not realizing that was good for a lifetime ban, no appeal). The bike advice here is fine, of course, but I've been riding since the early '70s--I don't need a lot of bike advice. I sometimes miss the irreverence, humor and wide range of topics on the old site. They're just bikes, and there's a lot more to life than cycling.
