Windrock ATV Message board

[ChrisKring]

what happened to the DH message boards over there?

[CHepler]

Noticed the same thing. It was there last night.

[Wndrckr]

I'll see what I can find out about it.

[Jeremy R]

It looks like they are straight the f*** down.

As Carlos Mencia would say:

Did they close the forums because some bike specific ones were opened somewhere else?

[Wndrckr]

Well, I didn't get the most detailed explanation, but basically I think it comes down to the new insurance for the ATV Club. Since they are no longer doing trail maintenance and have separated from Coal Creek (land owner) from an administative standpoint they can no longer be affiliated with Coal Creek according to their insurance terms. I'm guessing since we build and maintain trail there, that could affect their liability and they don't need to take that chance. That's the best I can explain it.

Just keep the threads going here and elsewhere in the meantime...

[profro]

Sour feelings perhaps?

[acme54321]

Yeah they also removed the 4x4 message boards and anything else dealing other than ATV stuff.

[Taz]

If there is a need for a Windrock specific forum I can help - powers to be just send me a PM.

[ulockjustice]

dammit. does this mean that all windrock drama/bitching will be relocated back here?

[profro]

windrock drama/bitching

There is no such thing

[gemini2k]

how are the trails looking at windrock? I was thinking of driving down there for spring break in 2 weeks. Are the rideable or too wet?

That would be nice, but are the people who are in charge of the Windrock trails these days even on this forum?

I know authority over the trails have changed hands, but I don't even know who they are or how to contact them. There was some stuff about it on the Windrock-atv forum, but they took those down.

I like to come down to Windrock a couple of times a year, but I want to be able to make sure trails are open an what knot before I come, since it's a 7 hour drive for me.

Yes, they are on here. Several of them have posted in this thread. Hopefully, they will chime in with an intro since screen names can be hard to follow.

Mark: how about a sticky at the top here with contact info for the 5 person trail commitee?

Also, I would take brady up on the offer especially if he can hook you up with your own domain name (www.windrockmtb.com) or whatevever it was before on his server. If that doesn't work out, we (HGR) use powweb.com for hosting. $97/year for a website. Would the Coal Company chip in for it or give you space on their site? Basic info on trails would be great. If you want, I can set it up for you.

Thanks, glad to know they are on here. I would be willing to donate some money to get the website back up. Since I live too far away to help with trail maintenance and stuff. There should be plenty of companies you can register a domain and host a site for not too much per year. I don't see a Windrock website getting tons of traffic.

[ChrisKring]

Spoke80 - Ben
Wndrckr - Mark
ProFro - Doug
Chepler - Chris

There are several others on here too that I am forgeting

[Taz]

Yes they are on here. Two of the five members of the trail committee post here.

[Taz]

But yes, I would host the site for free. I do a lot of hosting of bike clubs and non-profit groups. I only charge if they can afford to pay (such as my local clubs which have several $k in the bank).

[Wndrckr]

Yes we are here and keep up with the concerns of the common people.;)

Oldskool - We are open year round although you may want to reconsider during the wet & colder spells during the winter.
If you want a trail update either post up here in the South forum or pm one the locals on here.

Wndrckr- Mark (me)
Profro- Doug
Mfzbike- Mark Ziska

Brady, maybe we can discuss a site for Windrock info. It may not get the most traffic, but it could be a useful resource for those looking for updates and such. Oh, and our treasury dept. is broke right now so can we get the donated version?:D

[Taz]

Donated, check! For as much as you guys do, it's the least I can do since I can never make it up there to work on the trails.

Brady: Very cool of you to offer to hook them up. Let me know if someone needs to pay for the domain registration.

Who owns the old domain? www.windrock-mtb.com

The whois entry doesn't say: http://www.whois.net/whois_new.cgi?d=windrock-mtb.com

[Wndrckr]

Thanks Brady! Maybe we'll see ya this weekend?

And thanks Chris for the suggestions.
