After a chat with an old member today who no longer rides

Got me thinking again what's people views on members who don't ride bikes and use the forum as a mean to meet new friends and go to bike meets


This member was told due to,his/her not having a bike better forget about nwb ?

I'm all ears

Dont see a problem with anyone being a member no matter if they have a bike or not, as long as they aren't just here to troll.
Its all about a shared love of bikes rather than necessarily having bikes........
I mean lister has a bike but only does 3 miles a year

No issue whatsoever. It's not some snooty golf club in the Hamptons or something!

The more the merrier, there are some folks who ride and some who ride further afield and some who clean and ride, and some who build bikes to ride, and others who ride and race. While others ride to work or weekend riders like me. and some who have retired from bikes, but still love to chat about them even mess with them but dont ride, It takes all kinds to make a forum. Just wish we could all get together for a big ride out. :) :)

How incredibly rude for someone to say that

Imagine if pubs barred none drinkers

He only rides his bike 3 miles a year.
Jazzi does not have a bike, but like to think she gets ridden further.
