Wow, didn't realize it was that old
I think I'd just discovered the site when Bike was starting. Many many hours of enjoyable, sometimes frustrating, often thought provoking reading. Thanks Angharad!
Almost the Same for Me
I think the series started very shortly after I stumbled on the site. I totally agree with Woody's comments.
Thank you Angharad.
WOW
that is like really, really ancient for a hazel dormouse :D
good things just keep getting better with time, love it as much today as back then.

Mind you July 12th 1962 was the first time The Rolling Stones performed in public.

Thanks
Thanks for about 3000 visits to my life. Its been quite a series & quite a feat. No matter whether you continue on or not you've had a very large impact on my out look on life.
Congratulations.
Congratulations. That is quite an achievement.
Congratulations!
Two weeks or so to episode 3000 and only days away to nine years. Wow
Love, Andrea Lena
Nine year olds are still quite manageable
Wait until the story reaches its 'terrible teens' :)
Time flies ...
... when you're enjoying yourself. I remember when you started you mentioned you were using it as an exercise to improve your writing skills. You succeeded.
It's funny. My local bike shop phoned me a couple of days ago to tell me the manufacturers of the frame set I bought from them had a recall on the carbon forks. I dropped the forks out and took them into the shop and discovered to my horror that the 'new' bike I built very recently is actually 8 years old!! Credit to Kinesis and my very old-established proper bike shop for being so pro-active.

Many Happy Returns
for three days hence. You had already been writing for a few years before I discovered and began (where else?) at the beginning. Caught up a few months ago and my schedules changed as a result. Please continue as long as you feel able.
Wow, time really flies...
recently I was wondering how long I've been a member here. I still remember reading the very first episode like it was yesterday. Congratulations, Angharad, that's really an achievement. I'm still trying to catch up from the time, I didn't had enough freetime to read.
I hope you continue as long as you feel you are able to entertain us with our beloved daily BCTS soap opera.
Maybe we can have a bike meetup on the 10 years anniversary :)
many thanks an kind regards,
Saphira

I was going to suggest
a Bike / Gaby combined Con for 2017 but who knows what another year will bring?

Wow, thank you, thank you!
Wow, thank you, thank you! Three thousand times thank you! (Just to get a few thank-yous ahead.)
Enjoy your holiday. I suppose we should all try to watch some TdF coverage.
