Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Has anyone else been experiencing this problem with the link in a quoted post?
I noticed that. It's not a big deal.

It's whacked. I was experiencing that the other night, as well. I figured it was on my end.

Well I'm glad it's not just me.

The first thing I want to try is just to close this thread and open a new one, perhaps that will clear it.

Looks like I missed all the excitement. I have thise kinds of issues so frequently, on all the forums I visit, that it didn't strike a cord, if there.
I came in to say that I mounted my first ever Conti Gp4ks2, this morning, and will be leaving shortly to see how it rides. I put the 23mm on the rear in the hope that I could mount and dismount the wheel without deflating. Close but no cigar. That old crit bike must be designed fir 20mm tires.
The front tire, btw, is a Vittoria Open Pave. And the bike is the 79 Trek 930.
Could make for a very nice combination, in this week of perfect riding conditions.
Oh, and on the test ride, I found some mahogany seeds on the ground. Looking forward to seeing if I can grow some.

Tests

Can someone else besides myself test the quote links in posts 3537, 3538 and 3540, and tell me your results?

WTH? It worked for 3540. Went to try the others and I don't have that functionality. No little arrow to click on.

Now the arrows are back. 3540 takes me back, but 3538 takes me to the top of the page. 3537 doesn't work at all.

I had it yesterday or a day or two, also. Later in the day, it was OK.

3540 works for me, the other two are borked.

I noticed earlier in this thread that there was a phantom page, but it only seemed to be off by one post. Not sure if they could be related, but the same broken backtracking happens in other threads with phantom pages, like "Latest Purchase" etc.

I had a meeting. I survived. I somehow got appointed/annointed the chairman 15+ years ago, and now they won't let me resign.
