Folks,

This website is designed, and chartered to be a community service for this community of riders. With that in mind, we are constantly looking for ways to upgrade the clinic and make it a better place to be for everyone.

We are contemplating making the following changes, and would really like to get just as much feedback as we can on each topic. Please reply in this thread with your approval/disapproval/comments.

Advertising: In an effort to get the clinic inline financially, we have added some small advertising to the bottom of the clinic. It is too early to know if this will truly benefit the clinic, but we have high hopes that it will. It removes the burden of financially supporting the clinic from the current staff, to advertisers who want your business. We are also looking at adding some advertising to other locations, with an eye toward not interrupting the normal reading flow of our articles and content.

Picture Gallery: Our current Picture Gallery is pretty basic, and we really want to have something where folks can put up pictures of their bikes, as well as some technically oriented galleries. We think this could be a very usefull feature for the clinic that would allow readers to peruse through pictures of what other folks have done.

New Forum: This forum has been adequate so far, but we are starting to outgrow its usefullnes and feature capabilities. We are looking at adding either V-Bulletin, or Simple Machines Forum. With either, we will pick up a great personal messaging system and both have better methods for finding recent posts. We are currently leaning towards Simple Machines due to the fact that it is free for us to use.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on all of these subjects. Speak now, or forever hold your peace
