Encrypted. At home, or on portable drive. NEVER mix business with pleasure.

They phased that out years ago. One of my biker friends works for them, and he spends a lot of time in Taiwan checking on their mfg sites.

I work for CPS...I can read and post on BF, but on occasion can't get the NY Times website without the "I'm looking at porn" sirens going off...now it is like a car alarm: no one cares...really.

Well, PSI, I'm sorry the NAZIs found you out...but that is why they are NAZIs, they are good at that kind of evil.

Hey, how much would the mod position on BF pay?

Webfilters are funny things. My city gov't in their infinite wisdom doesnt allow the Police to access sites that include any of the following: Guns, Knives, Holsters, pepperspray and tasers. Even retail catalogs containing the above are forbidden. Can still access ebay thankfully, go figure.

Appears to have worked!!!

I have been reading using a proxy. Some content is blocked, but everything else appears to be working.

...for now....

If they change ip addresses, you can go to
https://www.urgentclick.com/ip_address_lookup.php

Put in Bikeforums.net and it will return the address that it actually resolves to.
Welcome Back
Now how are the jerseys coming along. I cannot wait to get in full kit and get on the trainer in the basement or wear it to spin class!

Jerseys - we'll be lucky to have them before Christmas, but it should be right around then.

I'm such a loser I haven't touched my PS2 since my wife was pregnant 2 years ago. Wait a minute ....I don't play games, and have proof I have been laid....I guess that makes me an anti-IT-loser
