Just wondered what I have to do to get upgraded from a 'Learner Rider' on this site. I've been riding consistently for 43 years, passed my test in 1975, have owned all kinds of bikes and riden all over Europe and USA. Maybe the moon would get me upgraded?

Not sure if you're taking the pi$$ but it's due to the amount of posts written. Very funny though, made me chuckle

Just had a look in the control room and there are only a couple of options. Learner, subscriber, admin, mod, Rideout organiser.

I'll look into different names for post counts

If it's down to how good you are on a computer maybe if I try really hard and post lots I might get upgraded to an 'Advanced Rider' most of them are better on computers than bikes, oh now watch the shit hit the fan!! :

I can only get my knee down on the computer, hence how I made it to Moderator, nothing to do with post counts or the site, it just stands for Moderately Mediocre ;) :D :D :D
