Which other forums are you members on?
To find more for sale items, or picking for more different opinions and knowledge, which ever the case, where else?

I'm on retrobike.uk. I was one of the original members of MTBR in '96 but never go there anymore. I was on the Paceline for a very short time, like a few weeks, but without getting into detail I learned not my kind of crowd.

We have an Airstream trailer so I am a member of the airforums.com, all things Airstream.
I have a '66 Barracuda Formula S, so I am a member of forabodieaonly.com, all things A-Body MOPAR!!
I also have an older ('95) BMW, so I go to the bimmerforums.com for advice on issues/technical help.
But I mostly frequent BF!!!

I used to be on the Fixed Gear Gallery Forum and Chicago Fixed Gear Forum albeit the former has shut down and the latter has dust. I also used to help folks with info and such on the BikeSpeak Forum but did not follow the restrictions close enough and was asked to leave. Shame on me.

Currently, here on BF. It seems to cover most of my various bicycle interests and questions.

I only frequent two bicycle forums... this one and a MTB forum.
The rest of the forums I visit are backpacking and numismatic related.

V Salon is pretty good about not tolerating stupidity but it's not nearly as active as BF.... ACA touring forum has some experienced posters but a couple of trolls from BF have made a home there. I wish I could find one with the variety and activity of BF but held to a higher standard!

I subscribe to a bunch of cycling-related Google groups, but the ones I read semi-regularly are internet-bob and 650b. There are always lots of goods being bought and sold on those two.

I have also looked around and I don't think anything compares. I feel fortunate that I found this place when I was searching down some tandem info years ago.

Road bike review.
I forgot my log in ID & password though.
The names of their forums are arranged a bit different. Components/wrenching, wheels/tires are handled in separate sub forums for example.

I have accounts with many forums, mostly to be able to check out the pictures. The only one besides this one where I'm somewhat active is Retrobike. Not as busy, but nice and some very knowledgeable members and lots of old British bikes.

BF: C&V, 50+
Passatworld.com: We drive a 1996 Audi A4 sedan and a 2001 VW Passat wagon, and our elder son has a 2002 Audi A4 sedan. This forum has provided a wealth of mechanical knowledge and has saved me a lot of time and money. In terms of expertise provided, I consider it the automotive equivalent of BF C&V.
Audiforums, VWVortex: OK, but both pale compared to Passatworld.

Do we really need to turn this place into a political group? This can get real ugly, fast!

In addition to the other bike-ish forums already mentioned: Classic Rendezvous, internetBOB. Both are Google Groups.

This is the only bike forum for me.
I also belong to the Volvo and Gibson forums.
I spend most of my time here. Only because I stopped playing guitar and I bike about 15 x more miles than I drive.

I belong to bentrideronline for my recumbent information and the raleightwenty site, which appears to be dwindling quickly.
