Seriously? This is more like jumping through three hoops.

Anyway. Here's my ride.

It is irrelevant if you like the rule or not. It is in place to stop the plethora of spammers that try to hit this forum on a daily basis. Thanks to this three thread rule you the forum member do not have to wade through dozens of porn threads, weight loss ads and the like. I am sure you would also complain about that as well. Being a member of the forum for all of a minute and half you are unaware of the past attempts to thwart the spam slingers. All have had little success until this was implemented.

I'm fairly certain that NOBODY actually LIKES posting the 3 initial posts, BUT it's kinda like some things are 'worth' the wait, and THIS is one of them. Also, it's an added 'benefit' that we don't have to deal with all the SPAM, like other sites do. Makes it all worth it in the end! Some great folks here, with TONS of great info, ALWAYS willing to help out, too, and I'm sure you'll soon 'forget' about these '3 post hassles', and you'll be GLAD you stuck around to end up becoming an 'old timer' here. I know I have! :grin2:

Posting up / following forum requirements / rules... is just part of joining something. This is a good something to be a part of as well.

I wasn't gonna bring up, Shadow Riders...

But since this thread started in that direction, I found that shadow riders forum acts or tries to act like... pirate4x4.com

I'm part of this place, because it feels good and fellow... *{ key word there } fellow members here...

tend to respect one another. I've seen it get a little edgy now n then, but not like non sense crap on other sites.

Most now, require paid - PAID - membership to join or even see what is posted. There is a lot of info on bike specific here, how to's and people who ride the bikes, we are all a part of

I'm thankful to be accepted, a part of and share in this forum. I'm not into bashing other fellow members or being that type of accepted smartass when i post...

This is about us, you and me and them... we ride honda shadows, we meet up, we share, we are a good click...

Let's keep it that way!

A few years ago they offered the DO NOT CALL list for our phones so we don't get so much solicitor and spam intrusion. Although I think that all went down the toilet, because the junk calls are back again. So it is nice to have moderators watching our backs for the crap that could come our way on this site. Thanks Spiritman and all the others !!!

I think that one of the best testaments about this site is that when Shadow riders start riding something else, they stay with this forum.

That certainly does say something about the site and the people here.

Seeing how you're from Winchester, VA, do you ever make it out to Capon Bridge or Paw Paw Tunnel? Friends of our family used to own the Cold Stream Lodge in Capon Bridge, but has since sold it to some religious group that uses it for their outings.
