No Rob, you need to be in there, or someone does 
(ie: a mod)
Its a friggin free for all with newbies posting ebay ads everywhere and complete bikes in the bits section, it chaos. I know I am not the only one and a few have left here because of it being a bit uncontrolled.
But...... if you need to stay out because you have bought another roadie then that's no excuse either, as now you will need the bits for it etc, and the company of other likeminded (ie: sad ) individuals

Re:
Today I had a wee look at the European Single speeds in Slovenia as I got a facebook message saying tickets were now available. Having looked at the prices that event is now scored off my to do list. $300 for 2 nights camping and 3 days of the event, thats nearly double what the UK event was and yet the UK is meant to be one of the most expensive countries in the EU !
Then of course there is getting there in that the town/village is no where near an airport.
I know Slovenia is a great wee country, I've been there twice but $300 seems a bit steep for getting sloshed in a field, oh and a bit of the cycle racing lark
Mind you maybe its a typo or translation software error as why price it in dollars in a Euro country ?

Re:
I'm not pre registered I'm just following the thread. Facebook said that SloveniaSS had changed something so I had a wee look and there was a link to the Slovenia SS website regarding tickets. When I reached that page it had prices for a couple of options ie $300 for the full weekend and $200 for no camping option. However later when I just went straight to the website not via facebook there was no mention of prices or even entry info. So I'm now a wee bit confused but even if its all wrong I dont think my bank balance will cope with a weekend in Slovenia unless it becomes cheap as chips. :?

I looked at general camping prices at the campground they recommend and even at the height of summer its only 15 euro a night for a tent pitch.
So may not be as bad as you think.

They wont be doing anything until they are back from Japan.

Don't worry Rob, just having a whinge in general, certainly not directed to yourself in any way. The post above was just having a laugh.
I think the moderators do a wonderful job and should be commended
