Seems a new player has entered the market, maybe stepping on BikeHub's toes.

i doubt a collection of media releases will be stepping on toes......

[Shebeen]

run by an ex bikehub contributer...bah humbug, hardly a competitor (yet)

 

remember bikehub came about when the supercycling thing fell over, so that's a full circle

All they need is to add a forum section and some classifieds, and we have competitors.

What happened to that Ride magazine? Is that still a thing?

Run by the guy who does wheels 24 and already has an editorial position under the 24 umbrella. Lance has been a contributor there for far longer than here.

I really don't like the anything24.co.za network. 

I wont be bothering with their content. All press releases end up here anyway so no point in visiting a second platform. 

 

This is home and has been for almost 10 years now.

Until they kill the Off Topic sections. Then it will be like an empty house that used to be a home...

I couldn't care less about the Off Topic section. I use the internet for knowledge, not chit chat with strangers. Real life is out there, not in here.

I regard chit chat as the threads dealing with song of the day, movies & tv shows, or what colour your latest poop was.

 

This is a discussion on the latest news regarding cycling content online. Content that brings knowledge. 

 

Not exactly chit chat.
