Uhm, there's frequent bike content in this thread. I'd daresay that even with OT conversation, it has a great signal-to-noise than the greater 41 - whereas folks out there contribute to noise via talking out of their asses, our noise is the occasional bridge/bird pic, talk on the virtues of beet juice, complaints about the weather and discussions of personal triumphs and struggles.

I am questioning why some threads are moved after years and others are not, when then both threads fit the parameters of the reason for moving the threads?

I abhor capriciousness. Given a choice, my pants always extend all of the way to my ankle.
And running is still dumb. |

All I am saying is either enforce the rule totally or ignore it totally.
But this "Hiking" thread wa likely to lead to an avalanche of hobby threads because the idea was actually hatched in Machka's "Hobbies" thread. Doesn't take much imagination to realize that, does it? Yet this is not what the administration has in mind. They are insistent that the Addiction thread and the RTT thread remain the SOLE off-topic threads in their respective forums. But don't take my word for it, feel free to ask Tom. In private. The rest of the forums could care less and resent the interruption. |

See my posts above about capriciousness. I have already answered your question.

How is this road cycling related any more than the watch, or car, or hiking threads?
In this thread, I think it's more appropriate to post what you ate for breakfast, how many times you had bowel movements or which person you hate at your workplace than to post anything related to a bike. |

As you know, we try not to be dicks about some things, and along the way the "Watches" thread and the "Racing Car" threads slid in quietly under the radar. No big deal, we can be reasonable.

that is exactly my question, why now and why here! I and others, are or were, as I have been told to stop asking by the mods, why some threads are moved and others are not, when all the threads in question are off topic for their specific forums.
Perfect enforcement of a bicycling forum guidelines is not one of them. |

i'm thinking of throwing away my gloves and riding without.

Most saddlebags have a loop for a light.

....not to brag or anything, but I did predict that Addiction XXXIII would be the one where we crucified someone. Another triumph for the Magic 8 Ball. |
