If you can read this message it means you have been given access permissions to enter this forum and use it to hold discussions among your fellow craftsmen. The forum is not open to anyone who has not been pre-approved first and that includes most of the 200 or so Bike fanclub members we have.
I don't know if this forum will be useful to you or not but thought why not give it a try anyway. The idea is to provide a place where you can discuss your craft with other professionals and share ideas. That is, without divulging trade secrets of course. I'll leave the forum up and running for a while and see if it gets used. If not, then I'll chalk it up as bad idea and remove it. Anyway, you have the floor so enjoy...
