Hey everyone,

Sorry about the downtime.  Our host has informed us that we're causing excessive load (too much traffic / posts) on the server, so we will have to find a more expensive / robust hosting option.  We may have some more downtime in the near future, but it shouldn't be excessive.

Thanks for the patience...!

Bikepack away...

Alright, just a few hours of downtime today while we moved to a new server.  Rocking new dedicated server resources, so things should be fast and smooth!

I turned off the forum to avoid people posting and then having their posts disappear when the new copy of the site came back online.

Thanks for the support everyone -- it's cool to see the site outgrow cheap hosting and need something bigger!   headbang
