Well, maybe mostly KBers cos some are prolly getting disillusioned with KB...

...Manawatu could make a home for itself on mcrides...There are already a few manawatu riders there, and one yet to be manawatu rider who currently resides in CHCH....

I agree Bonez, there is lot of good stuff here. Anything that can support Manawatu riders must be good. KB has definately helped out a few. It's good to have choices.

That happens from time to time....its easier just to step away from the PC.
This has happened before, eg the sportsbike forum where people went to talk about how crap KB was...but most of them are still on KB. There are already too many sites for me to keep up with, I cant be bothered with more.

Let's see if the Manawatu riders can be better behaved on McRides than they have been here. I bet they won't get their own forum...

Its not about behaving themselves, more a case of a couple of headstrong people butting heads, happens all the time, even in the real world

As the saying goes- life goes on. No need to on carry feeling all bitter and twisted about it. Well maybe just a little, thats human nature afterall

Really? How much would you like to make that bet for? I'll put up $100.

BTW I thought the "official" reason for this forum going bye-bye was that the software is being replaced? Now you say it's about behaviour after all? You mods really ought to get together and get your stories straight.

McRides has created a Manawatu forum. My assumption was incorrect. I wish them every success with it as a forum for constructive discourse.

Why Hitcher my dear fellow, I do believe you are trying to being nice? Nice people in the Manawatu too, upfront, honest.... What more can I say.

I'm trying to get a web based social grouping up and running for Feilding Riders, for local get togethers, support and help with bike matters travel and events. Also to get local support going for out town riders coming through during the summer season.

Feilding Riders - Home Base (http://www.mcrides.co.nz/index.php?showtopic=14624&pid=25644&st=0&#entry25644)

Fantastic idea :) I think we should be heard, we are the minority :P

We should arrange a few beers at one of the local pubs :) :nya:
