Hmm... :welcome: although to me it sounds like you could be on the wrong forum!

You will also find that 99% of the people here ride their bikes day in day out. Some of them are even paid to do so.

Kenni dude, it was your tone in the first place! I welcomed you, just pointed out that your idea on what this site is about (show bikes that no one rides) was a little skewed, that's all. I wasn't trying to be unfriendly, so sorry if it came over that way.

not at all.....
a lot of people that see this site the first time, can't imagine that we really ride our "StupidLightFlexyLikeAwetNoddleUglyPlastic-bikes tha break after 5minutes of hard riding ;)
almost every user here has good aknowledge and mostly knows what parts suits what style of riding. You will also notice that durabilty and reliability are very important factors here on WW.

Have a nice day,
I'll go and do some training.

Kenni, have you done Sleepless before? It is an awesome event. I did it last year and it completely got me back into the racing thing!

Where do you go riding from Fleet? South Downs, or more local stuff?
