I don't know if everyone is stir crazy from being stuck at home, and is now suffering from pandemic fatigue and lashing out at any little thing, but in my estimation, not a day goes by where some innocuous thread is driven off the rails and politicized. That being the case, and in an attempt to keep this forum on track and talking about motorcycles in general and of course the Super Tenere specifically, from this point forward any and all posts with even a whiff of political content will be removed. In addition, any comments, whether serious or in jest, that advocate illegal behavior will also be removed. Overall, this has been a positive and beneficial forum, and one I have enjoyed moderating over the years, as the majority of members have made it easy on the team by being helpful, civil and where necessary, willing to agree to disagree on certain topics. Any one who does not wish to abide is free to leave, and any one caught violating the rules will be removed.

As always - Thank you AVgeek!!!

Folks - We're both here because we've made and still have friends through this place. AVGeek hasn't owned a Super Tenere for several years and between family & a new business, where to spend my little free time is actually a decision. From my own perspective, a few people (1) chronically de-railing threads, or (2) forgetting how to be civil turns moderating from "Let's see what is going on" to something less to look forward to. I know for a fact we've had long-time members leave echoing just that sentiment.

The few in the minority can find a Reddit forum for that crap & let's get back to being more the beer sharing story-telling group that's the majority of who is here.

But as AVGeek wrote - The pruning shears are out for content and possibly membership.
