Well yes seems a bit strange here I have posted on and off for prob 5 years
..
Most the time the same ppls seem to be here and seems if they dont know you
posts are either treated with contempt or sarcastic coments whats the go?
The net is a whole world of people able to exchange or add something
interesting if ppls can take blinkers off ?
Mark
oh ps before we have more sarcastic coments aimed at trying to make myself
look nieve as far as motorcycles go lets get something straight I been
riding bikes for prob 22 yrs still own 2 of my own personal road bikes
posses at least another 20 and restor around 1 motorcycle per week and have
rebuilt so1d & repaired hundreds of bikes so I know something about
motorcycles even if it might seem like very little to the experts here!
sensible replies would be apreciated !

I kinda see where mark is coming from here, as a new motorcyclist and an
avid cyclist, last year i posted what i thought was a light hearted Merry
Xmas & Happy New Year to everyone in aus.bicycle and bugger me....I got
flamed like hell by one of the regulars for sounding childish. I couldn't
beleive it!!
If any of the usual guys printed the same thing, it would have been ok but a
newby (me) was definately childish as far as they were concerned.
Most of us come to or try to find these groups because we're interested in a
mutual cause, it's hard enough to break into a group sometimes when people
know each other and ride together, but sometimes outright flaming is not
neccesary unless it's an obvious troll and they are better ignored anyway. A
bit of harmless sarcasm and mucking around with some banter is often fun,
but when some call you a dickhead or worse for no reason in a malicious way,
I reckon there isn't any cause for it...
Ok...i'll climb off me soapbox now.......all donations gratefully accepted
hahaha
