This Week In The Bike198 Forums (Jan. 29 – Feb. 5)
This week started big over at the Community.Bike198 forums. The biking forums are off to a big start thanks to the support of you guys and it is turning into a high quality forum on all things biking. With only a full week under our belt, there are 222 members that have generated over 1,130 posts. In the forum world, that is an incredible start. Thank you for the continued support and I am really happy with the way things are headed. If you haven’t had the chance, take a minute to look around, register for the forum and start in on the conversation. The Bike198.com community is off and rolling and this is your chance to get in on the ground level to be apart of something big.
