Craig Has been working on it for ages, wanted something completely new and fresh. Does look good.
But one thing I have noticed about any forum I have visited, it's down to the people that make you stick around, without genuine people, they are all a waste of time.

I don't exist really, I'm not genuine. There are some good people on here though.

Forums aren't doing well and have been in decline for a few years. Lots of old and established forums have gone. Even the big ones aren't that busy. People are happy to spend their time on facebook groups and twitter, which is fine for instant stuff but hard work when you're trying to organise something or you want advice.

It's frustrating at times for me and for D6Nutz when we see the site go quiet, but we'll always be here, simply because you're a decent bunch.

675 looks very good very up to date and Craig clearly has done his homework on it. I agree with Frankie here it's the people that make the forum. Love this forum and 675. I tend to find Tankslap has close friends here and always welcome people for ride outs and cakes and discussions. 675 mainly conversations about anything however ride outs aren't planned...I have witnessed people open a thread saying fancy a blast today...leaving in 10 mins!! Both sites consist of good people and you won't be able to budge me away any time soon!

I noticed that about the ride outs. There seem to be a lot of last minute shouts but when someone gives them a decent heads up there's no response.

Totally agree. It's very strange when you think that everyone there rides and your have a fair few local guys. In here everyone seems to comment and if it's not possible on the planned date it gets rearranged for a more convenient time. Both you and Nutz have created a very friendly atmosphere here and cater for everyone you guys have done a fabulous job

Well, I'm certainly not here because of the ride outs, as it's very unlikely I will be able to ride with the bulk of you. (I do hope to come over there at some point, but it's probably going to be in six years after I retire.) I'm here because I genuinely enjoy the atmosphere and banter, and while I am unlikely to ever meet the vast majority of you, I still think of you as mates. Rich and Jon, you guys have done a great job at creating a site that draws genuine people together, not only with a common purpose, but a common attitude of friendship. Well done (y)

And I plan to get over there sometime for the IOM TT sometime before I'm too old and a bit of touring as well, which I'd definitely try to line up meeting a bunch of you clowns :D

If and when you guys make it over here, we need to make it our mission that we get out for a TS ride out with you.
A slice of cake at the very least :)
