    Talking We Just Keep Growing!!!

    I don't know about any of you, but I am still watching our numbers grow, and in the few weeks that I posted the thread about reaching our 1000th member we have continued to grow, our membership is now at 1306.
    As far as the number of users being here at once, we continue to hoover at 100 users on at a time..
    These numbers pale in comparison to MTBR, but we are growing!
    RIGHT ON!!!

    Well, there's reason for those numbers...

    ...and it should be obvious.

    It's A LOT easier to ride a bike than be a photographer. I mean, ANYONE can ride a bike, right??? Here we're much more selective... ;)

    HA HA, just taking a break from my taxes. I was hoping maybe I could start a FORUM war in between number crunching...

    Taxes - Ughh

    I finished my taxes this morning. What a relief. I spent less money on photography last year, and made more than last year. I'm still losing money, but I'm doing better. Maybe in 2004 I'll actually make the marketing commitment I need to turn a profit.

    As far as growth goes, I'm pretty damn happy with how well these forums are doing. There's been no effort to put the word out about them and they're just humming along. Some more new stuff is coming and when that stuff his, I think we see some huge growth. Then we just have to work to keep our small-town feel. This is, by far, the nicest Internet community I've seen or been a part of. I'm very proud to be able to participate.

    And it would be nice to be as big as Mtbr!

    "It's A LOT easier to ride a bike..."

    "than be a photographer. I mean, ANYONE can ride a bike, right??? "

    Yeah! Right on brother! Shoot, kids can ride a bike - just add training wheels. I've yet to see the add on to make a camera give a proper composition. :-O

    OK, just kidding Brian. Don't want you to think this is pile on Brian day. :-)

    I think it's great that the forums are growing. They should be - these forums are awesome. It's like getting an online education.

    Living in a coastal county, a "mountain" bike is something you ride on the grass instead of on the road. Not many hills, dropoffs and cutbacks here.
