Club?

[Hugh Januss]

Why don't we have a place for non-cyling related talk?
No idea why I just thought of that now.

 

[Max Cadence]

I am closing this thread, since it is in no way related to cycling.

Susan

That's not how we roll here.

 

[Hugh Januss]

Oh yeah, maybe that was why.

we have asked, but apparently we are not allowed to have intrests outside of cycling, or if we do we are meant to discuss them with each other elsewhere

woe betide any of us have other intrests, and personalities are banned..

Hum, I did not know that. Even the RBR forum has a place for that and it otherwise $ucks. Maybe we could ask again real nice?

Maybe if we say the magic word, cycling, the mods will allow it.

Believe me, we've gone down this road before. Dim should remember. Someone (like Dimspace, or whomever) should really go into the community section and start a café social group.

Maybe we could get 180 to help, I think he is in good with the powers that be.
I think they were a little hairtriggered in this instance anyway as health care unfortunatly does have something to do with cycling on various levels.

Yeah, you get hit by a car that doesn't have insurance, and you will know all about it! Maybe we should have been discussing it in "the clinic"?

Anyway, +1 for a "cafe" or other type of non-cycling discussion area.

+1 for the cafe. Good for these lulls in the cycling season ... no offense to ENECO or the Tour of Ireland.

 

[Amsterhammer]

+1 for a general 'talk shop' or whatever you want to call it. I'd settle for an 'other sports' section.

Does anyone ever think about cycling while watching other sports, for example?

Like football (soccer), cricket (oh dear Aussies ), baseball, NFL or even, dare I say it, tennis?

From the point of view of "this is so boring, I'd rather be watching a cycling race!"

 

[usedtobefast]

i'm in if we can have it. or like it was said, i thought of this while i was pumping up my tires. it could get hard to manage for the powers that be.

Cricket should be banned from the Cafe! Oh, I am depressed. That and we also lost the Bledisloe Cup to the All Blacks in a nail biter. Not a good year for the Aussies on the sporting front.

I normally am not too keen on reading posts on Brad Pitt or Angelina or peoples political views or any other crap that doesnt belong on a cycling site.
HOWEVER the problem is a little like the reason behind the clinic, if you do not offer people a forum they have an opinion just itching to get out and so they just shove it clumsily in some other thread.
Someone makes a political statement and the next thing you know the thread is highjacked into the dimwittedness of an Alaskan Gov vs healthcare reform actually being derailed by another parties reluctance to alienate trial lawyers.
If we have a seperate
CAFE section, those of us who only want to discuss things cycling related can simply avoid it like the plague
right now it is being interjected by people who just cant seem to halp themselves and so we cant avoid it as easily
