Forum | Migration to the new Guv’nor Forum

Splendid news . Splendid indeed .

Ah, good evening Mr Terry. I’ll try and update you, if I can.

The Guvnor Owners’ Club domain is up for renewal on 28th September, and without that domain being registered for another period, the GOC will cease to exist. Attempts have been made over the last few months as to James’ intentions for the future of this forum, but unfortunately little or no information has been received.

Rather than lose this community that has been built up over the years, it has been agreed that the only way to keep it going is to build another site. This is the reason for the link on Facebook, to capture as many members as possible during the transition from the GOC to the new Guvnor’s Assembly.

I do hope you will join us, good fellow!

Kind regards,

Martin

Gentlemen, I’ve found this to be an excellent, informative and friendly site. A credit to it’s founder and it’s members.

Please keep me informed, I believe you have my e-mail address and ‘phone numbers, Martin and Adam.

On a personal note, I hope to be Guv’nor-ing again soon.

Ride on!

A very good evening to you M. Ian,

Of course, Sir– social networking sites are not to everyone’s taste, this link merely just one of a number being utilised as a ‘catch all’ should some members miss out on vital information during the crossover period.

I have said it before and will gladly say it again, my heartfelt thanks go to Mr James for bringing such a community together. I am very new to cycling, and in the seven months since purchasing my Guvnor I can honestly say I couldn’t wish to have met a nicer bunch of people, both online and in ‘real life’, all as a consequence of James setting up this forum. And for that alone, the dear fellow gets a heartiest doff of the cap from myself.

Nothing would please me and many others more to see the GOC continue as it is, but with the deadline drawing ever nearer, action had to be taken swiftly to ensure the membership remains intact to enable us to converse as we do now.

M. Ian, we will look forward to hearing your valued contributions. We shall most certainly keep you posted.

Kind regards,

Martin

I suppose this means I’ll have to look at facebook more than once or twice a year. Well done in setting up the new forum at some point, gents.

Fear not Mr Fenrir and Mr Wheeler, the Facebook and Twitter accounts are merely accompaniments to the main forum. They will be used to alert members of forthcoming events, interesting posts et al. for those that use social network sites. The new forum will always be at the centre of all this, a ‘proper’ website, just like the original GOC.

As regards the content of the GOC, Mr Wheeler, I have little knowledge on how these things work. Looking at it logically, if the domain isn’t renewed, then I cannot see how it can be accessed via the internet. Perhaps someone with a bit of know-how could clarify this?

Kind regards,

Martin
