Well, I hope it works out as Gary Wright expect it too. I am only a Mod for the spam that happens
I try to stay away from or out of the inner workings and opinions on Strida.
Not easy as you expected but if you see something I've written that you
don't like there then tell me and I try to edit it and write a bit more as you
want me too.

What you forget is that I have written very positive about Mark Sanders and his approach to design of folders that had Strida as the end result.

I liked him from day one that I've heard about Strida many years ago.

My negative writings are backed up by other persons having same experiences of how
it feels to ride it.

Why else would Mark Steedman take it up when he bought the right to develop Strida.

We are all individuals with our own style of expressions and I only try to be accurate in how it actually feels to ride it
and my experience was confirmed by a friend and by the sales persons in the shop
me visited here locally.

Maybe my English are too home made to allow nuanced expressions so it could sound
worse than my intent wanted it to sound.

If you disapprove of me being a "technical" Moderator at the Strida Forum take it up
with the owner Gary Wright. I don't mind if you take over my role there and help them
with the spam that flood them at times. at least daily.

When I wrote them my intention was to be fair and very mild in my criticism.
Maybe my words sounds much more harsh than I am able to read in to them. I found my remarks to be utterly friendly. Had I felt as you say
very negative then my comments would have been much more hard.

I tried to be as friendly as was proper based on my experiences of Strida.

I was not alone in feeling mildly surprised either. My experiences was shared by those who tried it out together with me.

I still feel very friendly towards Sanders and his Strida. I just tried to tell you all how it felt for me to ride it.
