With a growing number making their way here from Cycling UKs other resources I believe it is time to look at what this forum is and how it can appeal to more people.
Thousands coming on and making one post is not a sign that they are discouraged. I only joined the old forum because I had questions about a long-ish tour I was going to make in 2005. I nearly never posted on it again. I have joined several fora to ask just one or two questions and again, have never gone back. And remember a huge number of people buy bikes and one summer later the bike is at the back of the shed - the number of questions they asked is related to how long they pursued their new hobby.
