It seems as though there's a move to start up the old discussion board in a rather newer format- facebook! It looks to be Cutter-driven so expect it to be crass, cocky yet very successful!

most likely only cutters will even use it. so far just annoying and a waste of time. Sorry whoever tried to start that one up. Good luck next time
agreed. after reading over the threads i threw up multiple times
No hiding behind fake usernames on PS4! Let's see how many still decide to talk shit.
My bet is that it is nothing more than a cutter jack fest!
I started it and yes I'm a Cutter. I got tired of seeing no activity on PS3 and wanted a place to talk about the race. There are 66 people registered and they aren't all Cutters. A large number of the users are Cutters simply because that's the majority of people with which I stay in contact. It's already started speading past that and you're all welcome to post. And FYI, there will be no lack of shit talking by me, but at the same hopefully there will be actual dialogue amongst teams/riders without some of the bull shit over at PS3.
I thought Little 500 itself had devolved to a "Cutter jack fest".
its funny because you would think that the fans that are 10 years removed from college wouldnt jack themself off to a facebook forum.. forgot that they couldnt move on with their lives. bmoc for life!
As far as I can tell, it has eveloved into a race where the Cutters have to beat themselves (pun intended) because no one else will step up.
You're welcome over on PS4. There's been some good activity today.
(1) Not everyone is on facebook.
(2) Maybe if the forum was expanded to include all aspects of cycling in bloomington there would be more participation and real conversation.
So basically Todd, you are looking for some actual dialog amongst teams that you can talk a lot of shit about. Sounds like what you were doing on PS3 before you got booted. I'm interested knowing what the point was with taking the PS3.1 graphic from that website and putting it on yours? And expanding the forum to include all aspects of cycling in Bloomington is what Geraint is doing here, and quite nicely in my opinion.
Seems like this is actually another PS 3 type forum to me, as everyone except the Cutters are unwilling to step forward and ID themselves.
If you are suggesting that no one else is still willing to talk shit about Little Five then it appears to me that everyone else has lost confidence in their teams/former teams ability to back up said shit talking.
On a related note, Geraint is the man, someone call HD Net and get this man a mic for ALL of raceday.
What Geraint and I are doing are two different things. He's is informing (from his angle) what is going on in the Bloomington cycling comnunity and he's been doing it pretty well. Little 5 is one component of that and it is the component in which I'm interested and I'm opening it up to everyone's angle. I would assume Geraint's site will feed the other quite a bit and vice versa.
I think Little 5 is a great event that is a lot of fun - the more people that get that, the better. If all this wasn't fun I/we wouldn't do it.
I did look into getting a 'forum' feature on this site but I couldn't find anything that Blogger easily supports. However I will post any topic (within reason) that people wish to discuss so if you have something to say that you want peoples opinion on then email it to me and I will post it (and people can then comment all they want). Not ideal but certainly an option.
cheers, geraint
