Default ECHO (echo) (echo)

OK, where in the world is everyone? It's awefully quiet around here. Just when it seems like we got some good traffic, it dies down again.

Unhappy Not sure

I must have checked in here a dozen times this last weekend and never any new posts and I was the only one logged in.

May help to change layout colors, put more eye candy up.
Compact all the motorcycle forums into just a few. That will make the page shorter instead of having to scroll so much and be confusing.

Example;
American Made
European/British
Asian

Just some thoughts

Apprciate the input. Whatever makes it more user friendly, I'm sure Mongo will look into. I don't frequent any other boards, so I don't know what kind of traffic is normal, it just seems awefully quiet around here.

This place has potential, just have to come up with the right combination of an atmosphere to make folks feel comfortable.

Smile Hi Jam's

Welcome to the boards!! I have been out of circulation for a while. But am back now. Visited with the site you listed, am having a hell of a time logging in. Hope they can straighten it out. But do want to say this is a HELL OF A SIGHT, thank you MONGO!!!! I do enjoy the feedback in all the different topics. Have been out for a while, SORRY, have moved to MN, then back to ND (don't ask why) but am content here. Am looking forward to meeting all in WI. Sorry Fat Boy isn't making it. Was looking forward to meeting him. As you know we own the same year, same color, same decals ...etc Fat Boy. Although, I am in North Dakota and only rode until the end of December, now we have real ND cold weather with snow. Hopefully after my knee surgery on Feb. 11th, I'll be riding by the end of May. The Doc is doing patella stabilization on me, anywhere from 2-6 months recuperation. I am hoping to prove them wrong and be riding my baby short distances by the beginning of May. We'll see how it goes though.

Anyway, am looking forward to meeting you in WI. (Phat-Boy, Mongo and those registered on the Biker Forums Home Page)

Yeah, I haven't been around much either. We actually should have had another chat...but my weekends have been busy as hell.

I've seen the harley davidson forum before, but I like that we have people that ride all sorts of bikes around here. I've thought about consolidating the forums down to American, Asian, European...but I have to take more thought to that.

Generally I think we're doing quite well around here, and since I'm not out to make a profit...just have a place to meet some folks, with this site we're accomplishing that mission.

And here I was just trying to see what everyone had been up to. Dizzy, sorry to hear about your losses. You have my sympathy. Looking forward to hooking up in WI. Still trying to work out the lodging, I have 7 right now, 2 more on the fence. Hope to know by the end of the week so I can get something reserved. The only 2 from the boards are Mongo and Myself. Should be a blast though!

Take care all!

Cool Thanks Dizzy

Good luck on the knee surgery, I had total re-construction on my right knee and then two years later they had to go back in and did a lateral release of the patela.
Neither time was any fun.
My wife has had six surgerys on the same knee and that has not been any fun either.

This is the third time today that I logged on here and am all alone.

Not sure what the answer is to get more activity here, other than looking at what works and figure out why it works.

Nothing wrong with having a place for all brands, just may work better if you make them sub catagories in forums.
