New board folks. This one is for the other bikes in your life or those you have looked at longingly. In fact, it's a new board for anyone who owns a non B'Twin cycle.
Red.

Thought it was a good idea for B'Twin owners to show what else they have as it keeps it separate. I personally think you Mods will be very busy if everyone is invited. this is a very friendly (most of the time) board and it would be terrible to ruin it. Just my thoughts others may differ.

It's fine, if they own a triban and another bike (that's mine and @davefy7 's camp also now btw), then great, if they don't but are considering a B'TWIN, then fine. If they just like the vibe then we're fine with that as well; if they come on to provoke and ruffle feathers as their main motivation, then we're all able to handle that as members, none of the mods have any qualms on administering fair and reasonable enforcement, they'll either settle in or move on, it wouldn't be the first time we've had such things - other members can also use the flag things to mods function. Extremely rare we ever need to do this though, as the place generally has such good members and balanced debate / input.

Great idea, I like it. As someone who is often tempted by n+1 I'm not sure my wallet will like it as much.
Any chance this section could be moved down a few spots, maybe under "Your B'Twin"? Having the Welcome and B'Twin specific sections nearer the top makes a bit more sense for this forum.

What about my second-hand rockrider 5.3 that I bought a couple of week ago? Btwin? non-Btwin? :-)

As most rave about our road bikes here I wonder if the New Board is the place for our off road machines, but then I have a bTwin Cyclo-X so what happens there...?

Yeah i think it could be a place to show of your other bike wether it is a btwim mountain bike or anything else.

Bear with me, I'll get it shifted when I crank up the laptop!

I created a thread yesterday to get things rolling but it seems to have disappeared. Not sure if I broke a rule (sorry if so)or if it was a tech issue.

You probably just had a posting glitch - extremely rare that we ever delete a post / thread, it has to be uber offensive, a generally pointless non cycling related rant / argument, potentially libelous, or a personal attack (and we even let some of those stand when aimed at the robust long term members who can roll with it ).

I thought that was probably the case. I'd been having trouble typing it up so copied it, closed IE and opened up again beforepasting in. There was nothing offensive in it other than my treatment of a poor old Raleigh mountain bike.
