New Cycling Mod

uberwolf

I see he's already outed himself, but Lumen has accepted my invitation to join the modding team for this forum.

Reasons are two fold - from the existing mods perspectives, this forum & community has grown and grown and a new pair of hands are needed. Lumen has been a valuable and knowledgeable contributor for some time and is more than up to the task. Despite his training schedule, his job and his mini-Lumens, he is a constant presence!
On the other side, I've been asked to become Cat Mod for sports, so I've a little less time than ever to keep an eye here. I will be staying on as a mod here as well (can't let my baby go )

So welcome on board Lumen!

and hopefully my newly freed up time allows me join a boards spin one of these days when I'm fit enough!

You all have lovely bottoms.

Good choice.

Kinetic^

Good luck Lumen.

blorg

Haha I noticed he seemed to have mysterious new powers. Will have to tread carefully now.

Raam

Is he still going to be the whipping boy on the boards spins?

ROK ON

Chapeau Lumen.
Hopefully we in this community will give you a lot of fun in adjudicating.

Uberwolf - you don't need fitness to go on a boards spin. Jebuz, you should see half of us.
As long as you are late, disorganised and like cake you will fit right in.

Nice one Lumen. Now in a position of authority........ hope it doesn't suppress your witty retorts;)

*Dirk quickly goes back through all his posts where he criticized Lumen and edits them*

All hail our new mod, may his reign be long and free of corruption and bloody coups.

like it? I'm eating it right now

Errm, does choccy count as cake?...

Raam

I'd like to know why Lumen is thanking every post in this thread except mine. I expect better behaviour from someone who is a mod. It's bullying, that's what it is.

LastGasp

Congrats Lumen, You'll have even less time for work now !

Mods can't enforce spin bans but may enforce the following rules.*


*You may partake in a Boards spin but must stay at least 50 meters behind the main group.

If an unusually large turn out is present and you're deemed to be benefiting from a draft, this distance can be increased to 100 meters, at the Mods discretion.

The Mod may suck your wheel for as long as he deems fit. You must accept this as a privilege.

If the main group stops for punctures or mechanical issues you must stop immediately therefore maintaining the distance ruling.

Your pace must match the slowest member of the main group therefore maintaining the distance ruling.

If the main group stops for food cake at the hippy cafe you are allowed stop but must sit at least two tables away.

If the main group are using all the tables you may sit on the grass across the road.

You are not allowed cake.

Verbal contact between you and the main group is forbidden at all times.

****,where are my manners, congrats Lumen.

I thought the first rule of boards spins is, there are no rules

AstraMonti

Congrats man! Well made decision.

Does this mean the Euro rules will now be enforced religiously, Sh*te I liked my Giant!:( Congrats Lumen I suppose and do you know a Look or Lappy dealer in North dub?

You mean he has already done this, or did you have a "private viewing"?
