What Happened to The 181?
A while ago I sort of noticed, but didn't pay a lot of attention to the numbers that the forums were assigned.
For a long time the Road Racing forum was known as "The 33" because of that number. That's continued as the title for that forum. The C&V used to be 181 (IIRC).
It looks like the Bike Forums is no longer using those names, or is it??

The denizens of the Road Cycling forum: https://www.bikeforums.net/road-cycli...t-anymore.html
They good-naturedly used the term "41" to categorize roadie stereotypes:
