Hi Mark. A couple of years ago, when several of us noobs showed up on the yahoo group, the activity level there was pretty low. With some new and enthusiastic blood, there was a considerable revival, with most of the activity from new members. But, early this year, when spammers showed up, we discovered that neither the group owner nor the only other moderator would answer email, and we couldn't get anything out of yahoo, either. So, I finally gave up on that, and started this forum, and most members moved here.
 
There are still a few of the old members who post here. I'll let them stop by and say hi. Welcome to the newest incarnation of rbent. We hope you don't mind that we kept the rbent dude; we all liked him.

Mark,
 
RBent Dude has covered a lot of territory since the early days. Just look what you guys & gals started!   When I first discovered recumbents, I sought more information on the good old net and what did I find...RBENT.  Are there any current members who were there from the start?
