Kinda sneaks up on ya, doesn't it?  And then grabs you by the throat!

Are these message boards subsidized by psychotherapists?  Group session, anyone?

So do we need to start a support group for riders that are addicted to GStwin.com???  :)

jnosal: Hello, my name is John and I am a GStwin.com junkie.

Everyone: (in unison) Hi John!

But I guess we can say that GStwin.com is a better addiction than other things. ;)

Thankfully when I feel the withdrawl signs I just jump on the bike and ride but funnily enough I then jump on to GStwin.com.
Yes my name is Lukewarm and I have a problem :lol:

Hi, I'm AR5ENAL...and, well...actually, I don't have a problem.  I don't check here that often...okay, well maybe every 10 minutes, but that's only when I'm at work.  

Look, get off my back okay, it's not costing anyone anything, and I haven't hurt anyone as a result of my posting here...sure I've had to come back to the office to print out how-to's in the middle of the night, but who hasn't...hey, what are you looking at me like that for?

I'm telling you, I don't have a problem...what the *&^&^!%$?  What are you doing with my monitor?!  HEY BUDDY.  I'LL TELL YOU WHEN I'VE HAD ENOUGH #$%^# GSTWIN!!!  BACK AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER.  NOW.

I put an old laptop in the garage, with wireless, and a dirty keyboard... that way I don't have to get the tire down off the balancing jig, before I can ask about tire weights :)

...so...

My front tire needs about 0.2 ounces of weight in one spot (really: about 2 pennies, that's it).  I think I want to put one weight on each side of the wheel.  They don't make 1/8 oz. stick-on weights, do they?  Would it be stupid if I used a penny on each side, with double-stick foam tape, then put a thin coat of caulk over each to keep water away from the tape?

Just kidding, not meaning to hijack ;)

Forums are really ideal. Especially if you compare it to about 15 years ago. If you had a problem with your bike, the only thing you could do is go to the bike shop and get it one for you. It is more like sharing knowledge nowadays.  Abnd it's fun! :P

And indeed, as Kerry said: Goup therapy. At least you get the feeling you're not alone/the only one.

Hi all. My name is Edsel and I have a problem.  I joined the forum about a month ago and been logged on 24/7.  Not usually under my name, sometimes as a guest. I dont post much but do read all entry.  My productivity at work have gone down dramatically.  On the other hand, my knowledge of my bike have increase exponentially.  And the joy of riding have also increased.  I am a gstwin junkie..  THANKS   :thumb:
