After a quick glance through off day and general chat I counted 4 bike related threads in the last 3 days, that's including this one and K3V MU's bikers/power rangers thread.
1-2 threads a day doesn't call for a subforum imo

its a corsa site, but theres geek day and sports day, house day, Snap day!
forums that cater for a wide variety of hobbies etc.
There are quite a few bikers on here, as well as people looking to become bikers!
well im going to start a pertition for a new sub forum that has nothing to do with the reason behind the site just because i want one too
end of the day i dont have any say in it, but we might as well start having sub forums for any subject 10 or more members have ever had a intrest in, i will therefore be asking Ian for a pot plant forum
if it sits anywhere, it should be over on the new WR forum when it relanches, not on CORSAsport
Find me 10 forum members into pot plants

all these forums that run with loads of sub forums look rubbish, make each room look really quite and just genrally dont work IMO
But French cars is too similar to the main topic of site, wheras bikes are more different, and can be treated as a hobby etc. Like Sport, Photography, being a Geek, Houses etc.
Personally I feel there is more than enough demand for it.

personally i think theres enough forums out there for all the bike info your ever need without making a website about small corsa hatchbacks cater for every type of hobby under the sun
Visordown and Bike Banter on Pistonheads would do what your suggusting but 1000 times better
as above all IMO as its nothing to do with me, the only place i can see it sitting is over on WR

not really, this is corsasport, but theres a fuck load more questions about them than bikes, and at the end of the day they are both engined powerd vechiles, neither of them beeing made by vauxhall

well dont post up stuff about shitty fords and people would not get these idea's haha only joking im totally impartial...
i personally think it would not be the worst thing in the world as ive talked to more people on here about bikes because i attend this site very often and having to flick between forums with unfamilar people is rubbish......... so i say yes but dont bother me either way!
ima biker i say yes........
there is a sub forum for weekend racer which has nothing to do with vauxhalls as it brand variant but works well dont it and quite a few corsa memebers have bikes now... me included
but like i say i would not be bothered either way if we had one id use it if we did'nt no skin off my nose

I do kinda agree with JR. We don't have that many bike posts, and when we do they usually hang around the top few forum pages for a while and we all bundle in those. But, also its winter atm, and I can see people posting some pics of rideouts n stuff this summer.
I'd use the sub forum for sure, but im not really fussed about not having one.

I can see both sides of the story but there isn't really many threads overall to warrant having it

Rename Geek day as Gimp day & post your bike stuff in there!!
Personally I dont see a big enough demand to warrant a sub forum!!

I thought the same thing years ago though when I sorted PVS one year. I wanted corsas only, and when other cars wanted to join, I said no. These people were IE cool though so I got another online hammering
All changed now though it seems
It IS still a corsa site, and there are bike sites about. But im sure people on here also like reading about them.

If there were plenty of threads it'd be good for 2 reasons, everything is in one place for others to read back over, and secondly so people not interested don't have to see the topics popping up.
Like Sports Day, I have no interest in anything like that so I'm glad it's in a seperate room cause I don't have to click on it, but as I say there aren't really that many bike threads.

What about if we include the people with Push irons aswell. Theres a few of them on here, What about "2 wheel day" or something along those lines.

uch well only a suggestion it aint no biggy if it doesnt happen to be honest, but as someone says people who dont like sports or have a house may not use the sub forums for these as they have no interest so its kinda the same thing tbh mate,
ive seen plenty of posts from yourself about fords and they are pretty amazing posts in general chat which is related to all things car as far as im concerned...
ill maybe try that forum on PH never knew about it,
just seems lately ther has been quite a few bike posts and would be good to see them all in one place.... people can argue all day long on here ive not really got the time lol
but i can see both sides here and if there aint enough interest in it then no point tbh

I would more than happy help with the moderation side of things if it does come to light. But its been spoked about before, i cant really see it happen.
although we have House day/sport day/geek day.....
none of them have wheels???
i think if we do have "bike day" then it should include motorbikes/push bikes/motocross/quads/etc
