Biker.ie

Saw that it's been off. Was a great site for chat and info but Facebook groups and the likes have taken a lot of traffic

I never bothered getting involved in any of the Fakebook groups.

Found they were full of idiots who loved themselves and posting pics

of themselves posing who in reality wouldn't ride a bicycle properly.

All the gear and no idea and plenty of money.

Yep, was a brilliant site once upon a time which came to and end for me a good while ago.

Probably was part of the clic for sure, my avitar was a source of great fun for most, though not very NSFW lol, was even threatened with being made a mod at one stage lol, all you really had to do to belong was have a sense of humor, you'd be viciously poked to see how you reacted and thn dealt with accordingly, right or wrong I made some great 'real-life' friends through it, especially around Trim lol, even caught up with some long lost brothers and sisters on there.

I drifted out due to life, eventually didn't really know any of the regulars bar a few, Chop was and is a legend, a friend to me and mine when one was needed - not too many 'warriors' can really say that.

Surely you're not in favour of censorship ? if they want to keep their forum free from over sensitive people then what's the problem ? you got super modded super censored boards.ie here if you like censorship so you can be protected from stuff that offends you.

Surely you can take being offended ?

This is why I love CB radio, I can talk all night to people about anything and not fear being censored or posts deleted like what happens here. And r/ireland on Reddit is a pure joke altogether with over sensitive snow flakes !

I also hold an amateur radio license and love talking to people all over the world about anything.

People can offend me all they want, I'm a big boy, I don't snitch out people to the mods !

Censorship is wrong !

What was your avatar?

See the site is back up this morning. Must of seen this thread.

I remember you now! A great pic!

It use to be a good site. It had a decent buy and sell section, plus there was a few mechanics on there that would give good advice too. I just got tired of being banned left and right for ridiculous reasons. There was another Irish motorcycle forum for a while, I can't remember the name though.

One extreme to the other, IBF one of the dullest forums around at the time.

IBF was the equivalent of The Dull Men's Club on fakebook.

People's Front of Judea-level stuff Gav 😅

Splitters!!!

I'm back on the bike after a few years and tried to log in to see about any group spins.......account was removed. I had well over 5k posts and countless build threads!!!! Shame.

Anywhere I can see group spins being organised?

Where you based? Most local ride outs/meets are through FB groups and the like as GBX said, North Dublin Bikers, Meath spins etc. (my local stuff).
