Portland, OR | Guys,
I have to come out of the shasow & stop lurking to add my 2 cents. I am currently in Kabul, Afghanistan. I have been reading the posts on this site ever since I bought my Vision in November of '07 while home on vacation.
Our internet is via satellite, so it is always slow by nature (my company is too cheap to increase the bandwith). Even so, this web site consistantly load a page in about 10-20 seconds, though it did have 2 periods where it wouldn't load in the last couple of weeks. Now since I am definitely as far away from the servers as you can get & still be on the planet, it seems to me that the website host may not be the problem, though as I am not a communications engineer (nor do I play one on TV), I will not speculate further as to the problem.
What I will say is that I too have lurked around the other web site, & I find that this one has by far the friendliest members, the best info, & the best attitude of them all. A little ibt of slow interent is not going to drive me away, not from a site that has so much to offer. I will be faithfully lurking around this site as long as it is available.
This web site has been great for me, learning alot about my bike, getting to know all of you characters; in short, helping me to keep my sanity while over here. I want to say Thank You to Jam & Miles for all of their hard work & dedication to creating & maintaining this site, & another Thanks to all of you members that have posted so much information, creative upgrades, & have made this site alot of fun to come & visit. I am starting my 4th year of working security over here, & this site & all of you are really appreciated.

Under the Rule of Jedi - Masshole | Man I wish all the wine bags were around when there was only one Victory Club online. It was on Yahoo. Read a post, next page was an add, read a post, next page was an add, you get the picture. This was back in '98! Oh yea, that was the same year I ordered my first Victory! And back then I'm sure a lot of you either never heard of Victory, or had poopy diapers.
Still got #567 V92C that rolled off the line.
So all I got to say is THANKS Jeff & Miles! |
Vision Riders leaving this site?
