Happy Birthday BCF!

https://cdn.bikechatforums.com/files/10today.gif

It's after 11am, which is when everything was made public on 2 Feb 2002, so that means the forum is now officially 10 years old.

Maybe it's finally time for a new look? Razz

Could be, could be. Might be worth opening it up as a competition; design the new BCF layout?

Nope, not today!

And, yes; ten years of 'interesting times' at least.

Had a few people joining at 14 and quite a lot at 15.

Congrats BCF Thumbs Up

As for the new look, can everyone remember the fuss that was made when the extra forum sections were added?

There was indeed. The old nsr125.com forums were around before BCF was formed. As Korn and Zimma et al grew up the forum progressed into something much more that you see today.

Old Thread Alert!

The last post was made 14 years, 10 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful?
