Thread URL format change in the past?
I'm working my way through some URLs in a Google Docs spreadsheet (Medici serial numbers). Google complained repeatedly that there might be problems with one or more links. I finally tracked one down today and decided to check all the other URLs. A couple are BF URLs which don't work. Here's one:

That doesn't look like current practice. For example:
https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-v...t-fiction.html
Is there a way to map the first URL into a form acceptable by the forum software, or is it just a busted (or deleted) thread reference?

So with what understanding I have, that first URL you linked, may be because it got deleted, merged with another thread, or moved.
