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

BF Real Time Chat Server or Channel?

I think it would be cool if BF had a chat server where people could connect to, OR

have a channel on a network (like EFNET) where people could join and chat about
various bike related info. What do you guys think?

Just get a program like Xchat or mIRC and connect to EFNET and /join #bikeforums
or something?

I wouldnt recommend using EFnet... it doesnt have any services.

There is actually a chat program that integrates with vBulletin called Flashchat that is really nice if someone could talk Joe into installing it.

Yea.. Im new.. thats it....

I moved my channel off of Efnet 8 or 9 years ago. I see they do have a chanfix service but I dont see a nickserv or chanserv type of service.

A properly run channel doesn't need either of those.
