[Closed] Will a #TOTW ever come from the Bike Forum?

Is it noteworthy that the first 2 recipients of #TOTW weren't bike related? Looking back, I don't think any of the true STW classic topics of the past (Sudocream Cat etc.) ever have been either, with the possible exception of that one about making the trails come alive.

What do we think the chances are of a TOTW actually being bike related?

(In the unlikely event that this one develops into a corker and qualifies for next weeks award: I've made sure to put it in the appropriate forum)

There have been some pretty epic bike forum threads over the years, to be honest...

There was Northwind's (I think) fork maintenance thread, the Sick bikes debacle & that Energy drink company getting sued by Whyte (maybe not in the bike forum), Derekstarships no bar-end injury and that Badger bloke with the tubeless explosion....

that Badger bloke with the tubeless explosion…

An absolute classic! But wasn’t that in the chat section? It was a long time ago, and things get hazy with time.

How to remove a toenail was a win for me.

The song that got Dr Hook on the cover of The Rolling Stone.

I think my first thread about injuries would've been a contender, but that was before TOTW was a thing, I believe.

How about thinking of something interesting to discuss on the bike forum and posting it. I reckon that would work, si77 😀

As a #TOTW winner and current reigning #TOTW champion I can only offer this advice;

Write from your heart.

You, sir, are a legend. I've just had the urge to contribute to your heartfelt missive. Trouble with it being TOTW, it's stuck at the top, so nobody will know I've "bumped" it, well, cos it doesn't get bumped.
