Okay we have reached 100 members on here now, which is a fair start, now we just need to speak up and get the forum happening. The more talk we have going on in the forum the more content we have to feed off of so get typing! It's slowly getting more active, so keep it up for those who have been in the discussions. The fun is just beginning…lol.

Although I joined before Mrs B ( ha ha I win ) she did point me in the direction of this site so thanks should go to her.
Looking forward to seeing it grow and hopefully some of the 'softies' from the other forum will come on board.
There are quite a lot that post on other forums so it should only be a matter of time !!

Hey well it seems we have more motocross supporters here than road racing right now (that actually post in the forum anyway!) so that gives me a good reason to continue doing more dirt stories etc haha. So speak up road racers or you'll miss out!!

All forms of motorcycling excite me but I have to say moto x is what really does it for me.........
It suits me nicely for moto x to be the main focus !
You get some good interviews Alex and it is obvious that you know your stuff , so keep up the good work mate and one day soon your site will surpass the others.....

Thanks Midlife for the props
I must say I am only new to road racing - i am yet to get to an event. I will eventually - so far just a tv watcher and AMCN reader (I don't read the articles, just look at the pictures). Some friends from work came with me to buy Stroke today - they call it motor bike porn - I am happy with that!

Alex,
I don't think that the lack of chat on your site has anything to do with the quality of the site.
The simple fact is that there is no news on the ASBK out there to discuss.
Sure I like the overseas stuff, but I want a series here that we can get behind and enjoy like the poms do with the BSB.
The BSB web site is just a flurry of info and there is always something new everytime you click on.
Australia have very little to crow about which is an MA issue and Konsky does stuff all on his site to promote topical discussion, so we stay quiet.......simply isn't it?

Yep, is a very quiet time in the sport right now, and like you said in the Ducati thread, there isn't much news regarding the teams going around at the moment. The reasons are: a) Teams don't know themselves; and b) whatever they do know they are keeping very close. All as I keep getting told is that "we are looking for sponsorship".
Even still, we have a six hour on at Oran Park this weekend and the message boards on any site aren't exactly lighting up with predictions etc! I find the dirt stuff that we cover on here domestically gets so many more visitors, which is a shame for domestic road racing in general.
For me, motocross/supercross is the total opposite right now to road racing and is enjoyable to report on, as is the testing side of being a writer. In fact, I have an Aprilia RSV4; Ducati 1198 S and Honda CBR1000RR waiting for me at the Creek for Sunday woooo hooo haha. I'm not one to complain from where I stand.

Over 500 members now! Going strong, thanks for the support as always guys!
Don't forget to continue spreading the word as the more members and people we have visiting the site then the more time I can justify putting into it as it becomes more of a business! I'm looking at adding a couple of part time people shortly too.
Thnaks again!
