The downside to it was that the only thing you could tell about the members (each represented by a Simpson character) was what bike they where currently riding, what color nipples they had and what their favorite beer was. After a while a calander was added in which you could post a local ride or event on, so it became more interactive, but sadly enough, it was just too anonymous for most people and now it's gone- but, I still think it was a good effort in trying to get people together. The Blog thing is way cooler than a roll call web site, much more interactive and limitless as far as the content you can add and it is certainly immediate. If something happens and you want to talk about it, you can put it right out there.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11359134663559213644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8212173.post-1155270497525759912006-08-11T00:28:00.000-04:002006-08-11T00:28:00.000-04:00I have been influenced in several ways.

I have gotten training ideas, nutrition ideas, equipment tips...you name it, it is on other riders minds.<BR/><BR/>Blogs are really the best resource out there for picking up on information in the cycling world. Around Interbike time they are full of new product info from people posting from the show. Race results are often posted long before the official websites get them up, photos, reports, stories...they all are posted from people who were not just in attendence, but actually participated in the different events.Grizzly Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05216018097001642270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8212173.post-1155177723054176122006-08-09T22:42:00.000-04:002006-08-09T22:42:00.000-04:00Gwadzilla introduced me to the world of blogs.

Through blogs I am able to meet people, and look into their lives for a bit, all the while having something to connect with. Mainstream cycling media covers the pros, this is much more grass roots, provides me something familar for me, somethign I can connect to, some dudes or chicks like me struggling to work, have a live and race. Some dudes or chicks who may have done the same event as I, but who have had another entire experience than I did. I have made a number of friends thru my blog. I would also so that there isn't a magazine out there that really speaks to what I care about in cycling, blogs provide that platform. I read intently, because it is easy for me to connect to...<BR/><BR/>respect<BR/>fmYour Friendly Neighborhood HR Dudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17282255621586407098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8212173.post-1155176079190327332006-08-09T22:14:00.000-04:002006-08-09T22:14:00.000-04:00Jeff Kerkove's blog got me started and inspires.Ja...Jeff Kerkove's blog got me started and inspires.<BR/><BR/>Jason Sagers for the humor.<BR/>Nick Martins.<BR/><BR/>Adam Lisonbee's is well written and photgraphed.<BR/><BR/>John B's help me stay focussed on the love for all things two wheeled.<BR/><BR/>They all do SOMETHING for me.
