What do you look for/want in a cycling website ?

[cat-i]

articles that give me the impression that the writer rides - or at least know someone who does.

 

 

while reading this article from entrytime i was wondering if i could fit 28 inch tires on my bike to make it more suitable for touring.

i was also wondering why my shop didn't sell me suspensions with the last 26 inch tires that i bought.

I came across this in the pursuit of a Specialized saddle, "the hub" Australia. Maybe this will help : http://www.bicycles.net.au/forums/

Things I would like to see:

1. Split the site in 2 ie mtb vs road

2. Full events calandar that you can sort by province, format (multi stage, 2 man team, night riding etc)

3. Links to event websites

4. Up to date trail info (ie trail closed for maintenance from... to ...)

5. GPS routes of trails with profiles, downloadable maps

6. Proper directions to trail

7. Comprehensive list of clubs with annual subs, listing benefits etc.

Maybe some Money to be made with an escrow setup (happy seller / happy buyer)on the for sale setup (Bid or buy for bikers)

Some of us have made 10+ deals here, but have to jump through the distrust hoops every time
