Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

People need to stop being so scared of change. It makes you sound old.

I come from adage of "If its not broke, Don't Fix It". Minor components to the site would be fine, but to revamp the whole interface, MEH, I like vBulletin, its the best Forum Program available, but sometimes messing with the Interface is not needed. At least the Web Master of this site should have taken a pole, people who wanted a new interface or keep the old one. You can lose popularity with stuff like this.

I like it too.......Looked antiquated before.

Like a bunch of us posting about our 12lb carbon fiber bikes made with all the latest technology........Only doing it on commodore 64.

Most everyone loves new technology on thier bike, but very few seem to like it on thier forum interface.

Wierd!!

Not everyone likes to install Beta technology on their bike unless it adds some useful function. This Beta version of vBulletin is full of bugs and uncontaminated by new features. It would have been better to wait until vB4 was released.

i like the new look. just annoying that so few threads are shown per page. for a fast moving peleton like the road forum, it get annoying with threads disappearing so quick off the back.
