As we approach 2600, I'll ask my customary question, do readers want us (Bonz, Whizz and moi) to continue writing this tale of convoluted undulations? I might add as far as I know the writing team is happy to continue if the answers are positive and our gracious hostess is happy for us to fill up her servers with such tosh.
A, B & W.

Go for it.
I can't imagine what it would be like not to have bike to read.
Have been an avid follower since the start and really look forward to it everyday.
Huggs,

My only answer would have to be
Continue Please
As always your loyal fans cry out for you to continue as long as you are able and willing. But please leave room for yourself to have a life outside of Bike (and maybe write another chapter or two of "Insane" :).
Love and many hugs, Sarah Ann
BikeTo Continue
If my wishes are good I want to see Bike to Continue like forever. But that is your choice as your the one that has to think what to write and that is always your choice. why don't you go to every other day if your wanting to cut back, even though I know we will all miss it not being everyday you have had us spoiled now for what Seven years now. Thanks Angy. Richard
I love Bike! Please carry on.
I love Bike! Please carry on.
Bike has kept me coming back to BCTS on a daily basis during periods when I might otherwise have drifted away.

Please continue with Bike-ing
Hear, hear! What everyone else wants! Just do it at your pace, but please, oh please, do it! Pretty please with a cuppa for you and a new catnip mouse for each of your co-authors!!!
Don't let someone else talk you out of your dreams. How can we have dreams come true, if we have no dreams?

By all means
By all means keep it rolling with the seasons. There's always something happening with that brood.

Please, Yes.
My day is not complete until I have had my "Bike" ride. Please continue this wonderful story for as long as it pleases you and your crew.
Thank you again for so many great reads.

You have to ask? Of course we
You have to ask? Of course we want you to continue, for as long as you're having fun writing it, I guarantee there will be avid followers of the (in)famous EAFOAB aka the dormouse gazette.
Cheers,

With apologies to
Charles Dickens,
"Please, Angharad," replied Velo, "I want some more."
I want it to be much more
I want it to be much more gross in size. (more than another 144 :) )
I'll get a life when it's proven and substantiated to be better than what I'm currently experiencing.
Well, hmmmm maybe ... I guess ....
OF COURSE, GOOSE!
Yes Miss, may I please have another?
I've read this since the first episode and frankly don't know how you've done it. A very enjoyable saga.
I've been glad to see that you don't feel obligated to produce one every day any more. I'd also like to say that I like your non-Bike writing and would like to see more of that.
Thank you once again for a few minutes a day of entertainment for years now. I hope you've enjoyed writing it as much as I've enjoyed reading it.
please continue
As i think i said last time, if you keep writing bike, i'll keep reading.
oh and thank you.
Life Style
It may sound pretentious or shallow (I'm not sure if both apply) but I print off your efforts every day (nearly). Then read it as a way of slowing down & directing my thoughts before sleep. I believe I could adapt, but I'm not inclined to. Above all it is your life and if this writing is important to you write on, if it is a drudge or a tiresome chore stop & thanks for the memories. But if it brings you pleasure as well as me & countless others ; then by all means write on. Love Brian
convoluted undulations?
Does Bruin defecate in the forest? Silly, we hang on every word! I do have to admit, however, that it's a balm to my conscience to know that A, B & W are happy to continue. In a word (three, actually): Yes, please do!!! And thanks again, dear Angharad-
Hugs,
Miriam
Well, DUH! Ang. Please do continue
Did you even have to ask?

Over Three Million Served
... and counting! Words, that is. I remain utterly fascinated that you can keep this gravity-defying novel... um... defying gravity. And that's what it is, a giant novel, written on a single timeline with characters you've brought to life, made lovable, and addicted nearly a generation of readers to. Okay, hyperbole.
I've never read anything of three million words before. Don't stop now. I'd like to try for five million.
Yes Please!
Yes Please more!
Or to put it another way...
If you're still writing it in 20 years I'll still be a fevered addict, jonesing for the next episode...
Thank you for the awesomeness you've already given us!
Abby
More Bike?
Three cheers for the "Neverending Story'
"May I top off your coffee ma'am? .... and how about a refresh for that hot fudge sundae?"
...in other words "ARE YOU KIDDING?"
I'm already stunned by what you have produced so far. If you are not yet sick of us. please know that we will never tire of your delightful tale.
....ummm.... I'm not presuming to speak for anyone else... this is the royal 'we'.
....no... actually.... me myself and I....
Please please please please please.....
Keep writing as long as you feel the urge and until it becomes a burden.
It truly is delightful!
...and deeply appreciated....

Need you even ask?
The decision of course always lies with you, and I for one will always respect your needs and desires, but without a doubt I would love to see more!
Please ma'am, may I have some more?

Yes indeed,
I'm almost caught up! Please don't quit!
Bike on
Don't make me come down there with tea and cat food..
Seriously, as long as you are happy spinning this tale, this'n will be happy batting playfully at the dangling end.

Bike-less?
Now I KNOW the world will come to an end.
I have enjoyed every word 'whot you dun wroted' and would be all upset as hell should it not continue ... ... ... with one proviso.
If at any time it ceases to be fun for YOU, then stop!
With many thanks and much awestruck appreciation

Having read Bike since episode 1 I can't imagine not having bike to read so please stick with it
lone voice in the forest
I'd be much happier if you wrote other stories!!!
Like that story with the military guy who changes gender for her country!!!
PLEASE CONTINUE
GinnieG
As long as..
As long as your team is willing (and enjoying), and our hostess is willing, I'll look forward to reading more Bike!!!

Perhaps as suspected I have 99% feline DNA…
… because Bike acts like catnip on me.
Checking health risks by Google I found, "While catnip serves no real purpose other than allowing an owner to watch his or her cat go bonkers, there is no evidence that it causes harms to cats. If your pet is a little too sedate, toss it some catnip and liven things up."
I do hope that while you feel able you keep Cathy, her family, friends and even favoured enemies peddling/pedalling their wares across BC's pages.

Oy!
Be'ave!
You gotta be kidding!
My day is incomplete without my Daily Dormouse. On those days that you are unable to write the latest installment, I feel terribly disappointed. I'm sorta like a little kid on Christmas eve. I can't wait for the next day. Then I can't stop checking BC/TS, frustrated until electronic magic occurs and Easy as Falling of a Bike pops up, and I can assuage my addiction to the further exploits of the southern sept of Clan Cameron.
More...always more!

If it pleases you to continue writing " BIKE", then by all means do so and I will wait with baited breath daily to pay homage to your suburb saga. If you wish to write less frequently - do so - it is entirely up to you. You have contributed so much to so many of us that to ask for more would seem to be an expression of greed on our part. So long as you will write - I will shamelessly enjoy the fruit of your labours.
Thank you for all that has been written and an extra thank you for what ever might come.

May the sun always shine on your parade
From the comments expressed
the cats and I have decided as there were marginally more in favour of continuing and assuming Auntie Erin lets us fill up some more of her server space, we'll keep Bike going for a while longer. I ask this every hundred or so episodes because I feel it useful to have a mandate for Bike in case others consider it takes up too much room on the front page or on the servers.
I may be mistaken, but I feel that after seven years of nearly daily posting, it's actually become a feature of BC although I'm aware only a proportion of users read it but seemingly those who do are very attached to it. Not bad for an experiment I thought might last four or five episodes.
Angharad
Thank you Angharad
Rhona McCloud
Y A Y
Merci
If you keep on writing I will keep on enjoying.
If you decide that's enough I will unhappily live with it, but I do enjoy it very much.
Kudos yes, but it is very difficult t o enter a comment which describes how much I enjoy your fantastic story,and how jealous I am that any one can keep my (and a lot of others) interest for 7 + years
Thank you for all you have put into this, for all us untaleted bunch out here.
