Well my Arse is still firmly planted on the R3, & it's been there since 2009, not that long I know but I guess it will still be there in 2019 at least. I'll still be checking in on the forum too, I think many members get a little bored but give them time & they may well be back. I know "Battersea" has left, I phoned him a couple of months ago, he's riding HD now, reckons R3 getting too big & heavy for him due to ill health, that could be the case with others. At least Barbagris announced his departure & I'm sad about that, I had his email at one time but it's gone now & I can't get it back. Those names you mentioned are big guns & will be remembered by many, come on back guys you'll still have a lot to offer.
