    I now have a doohickey. I could only afford 6 months right now, but I felt like I should. For people who have not, let me tell you why I did...

    Because even though STR is one big dysfunctional family, the benefits outweigh the obnoxiousness (of which I myself have been part of from time to time!). ;)

    Because I've met some awesome people here, and even managed to ride with some of them, and know that there are more cool people I'll be riding with in the future, just as soon as I finish rehab from my recent crash.

    Because when I did crash a week ago today, there was such an outpouring of concern by people I never even met that I was just blown away. I have a lot of friends that don't ride, and they can show their concern and feel bad for me, but the only ones that truly understand the pain and frustration of being laid up and not riding are other mountain bikers. From the bottom of my heart-- thanks again for that!

    And finally, because as much as we love to joke about them, being a mod is a thankless job, and someone is always going to hate them, no matter what. I appreciate the people who try to run this forum and keep things civil.

    Thanks STR! :)

    Hey, if this site ever needs any help hosting wise i am willing to host it on my server if that would help the owner in any way or shape at a lower cost as to what he is paying at the moment... :wave:

    Thanks for the website and community! :beer:

    Thanks! I was hoping the PayPal connection issue would magically be resolved during the upgrade but I guess it didn't. Did see some useful info on vbulletin about this that may help.

    Added your doohickey manually in the meantime. Thanks again :)
