Your favourite thread type?
 
Now that the Northeast USA is in the midst if the worst winter in recorded history, many of us are stuck reading here in BF instead if being out riding. Being as such, I was wondering what everyone's favourite type of thread is to read.

It really depends on the application, but I prefer coarse because of the greater speed of installation.

Ummmm......huh?

Ohhhh I see. You didn't read the entire question before you answered. Partially my fault....after 4500+ posts this is my first attempt at creating a poll question. I suppose I could have titled it better.

Cheers,

I dunno, but I will say that this type of thread is probably my least favorite.

How about your favourite tire? Canadian spelling.
Favorite tire? American spelling
Favourite tyre? British spelling.

Four months a member and already a smart ass. It didn't take you long to fit into the Road Forums. Excellent Job:rolleyes:
Maybe next time I will post a "Your least favourite thread type" so you won't have to answer again.

Speaking of which, maybe my pet peeve but my LEAST favorite posting is one that starts with "Recommend me a ...."

Race Reports are all about guys that are WAY faster than I am. Forget that.
Ride Reports/ Ride Reports with pics are like watching someone else's home movies. BORING
Group Ride reports is like reading/watching family home movies. BORING
Personal accomplishments is all about someone else doing something better than I can. Forget that.
Members new bike report/ upgrade report is all about someone buying something I can't afford. Forget that.
Newbie's first ride, not quite as boring as ride reports.
SOOOOoooooo by default, I voted Pcad Threads.
I'm stunned, I'm actually becoming a Pcad true believer. Help!!!

His threads have that effect on most of us.....you are not alone.

i like ride reports w/ pics, and if it includes a gear review even better.

new bike pics and upgrades have their own thread. unless it's relevant to the topic at hand.
