What happened to the well-written UK/Italy blog Armchairbiker.com? Website suspended, and I can't find it on Facebook or Twitter either.

The twunt amounts to nothing himself, and has to pull down others that can actually produce something others enjoy.

Armchair biker gave an honest and frank account of a certain still to be released life saving product, and was rewarded with legal action from many ungrown people.

Maybe we should accept that the world isn't ready for wipers on visors.

Whatever happened to BikeJet? Then at one point WiPEY tried to save lives but they were no more successful than RainyFriend.

So is that really what happened? If so, FFS... Or is this just a hypothesis?

Some say it's a hypothesis, some say it's a rumour, some say it's fake news but Adam The Partially Grown Aarons says that he'll see you in court.

Remember when this happened? https://i.imgur.com/J800FJ1.png

Jeez... I got about half way through that and all I can conclude is "never have a battle of wits with an unarmed man [or woman]" but yes, I know the sort all too well Sad

Armchair Biker had agreed to keep WetFriend® a secret so I reckon there must be another explanation for the website's disappearance.

I seem to remember the background to that, some angle was on the back of a stolen bike and ended up fliing hi.

They made a shrine to him but it got burnt down. Presumably by someone who wasn't too keen on bike theft.

Wonder how that turned out. The last I heard was the driver (who was never named) went on the run.
