Can we contribute to the cost of the forum
03/12/09 8:48 AM

I know it can be expensive to maintain the forum. I would not mind becomming a "site supporter" and making a occassional contribution.

Perhaps you can set up a paypal link for people who would like to toss in a few cajingles every now and then.

Just a thought.

Thanks for the thought, guys. It's really not costing much, and I'm happy to provide it. It's exciting to see the growth in such a short time. Talk about an "if you build it, they will come" scenario! First time I've ever seen anything like that actually happen.

Enjoy... -bg

I do not know how I would get past the winter months without this site . Some people get up in the morning with a coffee and read the paper, I get up turn on the computer and look to see what all bike lovers are up to .This makes the coffee taste better and winter go by much faster .So BG, again THANK YOU . Cheers .

Count me in! I really enjoyed the old site and I'm liking this new one. I can't help with programming or servers or other things i.t., but I wouldn't mind throwing some $$ your way to help with the costs.

I'm just worried about what's going to happen when your old butt dies......I've seen your picture, you ain't no spring chicken. Plus you jump out of airplanes, you ride motorcyces......well kinda fast! So some day theres just not gonna be no sticky BG. Not that I care about you, I'm just worried about me....I need the site. Are you leaving it to anyone in your will? I am joking but, the worst part....That asshole that runs that over site(Greggy) will live forever. You being a good guy.......well you know But really, thank you from me also!!!!!!!

Yes, my sons can keep it going. One is the lead programmer at my company, and the other is a sysadmin at the local hospital here. Wish I knew a small fraction of what they do. Not that I'm planning on going away soon...

However, I can certainly understand your concern, after what happened to zx14ninja.com. The thing is, that the value of a forum like this (or like the old one) depends upon the contributions of the members and the knowledge base that results. It's not fair to have all of that taken away from you. That will NEVER happen with this one.

Hey, maybe some day we should incorporate and sell stock and you guys can own it yourself... -bg

"I'll help out any way I can." Budsuds the under take her said.

Well, Bud, do not get old, ride or jump out of plain ass day is it? Could you have said it any plane ear? Cabin Pressure?
That is why I come here is listen to Bud bash the toe cut tear is laugh it up here. You need a cough inn, Bud? Six feet me under why don't chew. That was classic...

1+ Bg is going to out live you, Bud!
