MK Ultra Posted May 22, 2012 Share Posted May 22, 2012 As a recent 'born again cyclist' I'm really surprised that there isn't a Sheffield Forum cycling section, what with all the cyclists in and around Sheffield... It must be that everyone's out on their push-iron instead of sat in front of a computer....? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tobyjug Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Most of them use the forums on their own cycling club website to avoid the repetitive anti cycling red light ignoring cycling on pavement, less polluting, quieter, less damaging to roads, less likely to kill people car owning brigade.

sheffgrow Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I agree!! if we can have a healthy living group and craft group or even a classic car group in the interests section then cyclists should be able to have a section to talk all things bike Medusa Where are you???

splodgeyAl Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 An entire section of motorists bitching about cyclists? Sounds like a great idea in theory, but that is what it would actually be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onewheeldave Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 An entire section of motorists bitching about cyclists? Sounds like a great idea in theory, but that is what it would actually be. Many forums get around these kind of problems by simply stating that the cycling section is for constructive discussions about cycling matters, that motorists bitching about cyclists is not welcome, then using a moderation team to remove any posts that don't follow that guideline.

Runningman Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Don't mention anything about having a cycling section on SF. I did a while ago and BLIMEY, I was hung drawn and quarted by a Mod. I did forgive them however ( Creep ! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. That'd explain why the moderating team dont want a cycling section, then. I'm sure they have both a life outside of SF moderation, and other sections here that also need moderating. A cycling section would not help with either of those. FYI, I am a cyclist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
