Dear valued Members,
It is on very short notice, but I would like to inform you that we are going to upgrade the forum tonight, Monday, June 25. The programme will be ported over to Xenforo 2, which is a new major release of the current software.
For more information on what's new in Xenforo 2, please refer to the following thread:
https://xenforo.com/community/threads/whats-new-in-xenforo-2-0.133426/
Some of the highlights are:
GDPR compliance
The latest version is GDPR-compliant, so you may have to accept our cookie policy and Terms of Service once again. Sorry about the inconvenience.
New style
We are going to update the style to a more modern and user-friendly design. The forum revamp will be an ongoing project, so we are looking forward to your feedback to improve the style and usability over the next few days and weeks.
Wiki
The Wiki will be offline for a while until we find a better way to integrate it into the forum.
Portal
We are going to move the forum into the root directory and get rid of the portal. All the old links (vB and XF1) will be redirected.
Upgrade procedure
We are going to lock the forum tonight around 22:00; this upgrade won't be trivial, but we expect to be back online in the early hours of Tuesday, June 26.
Thank you for your patience and understanding!
One more thing.

- Are you Photoshop-savvy and willing to help us with a new logo? Please contact me via PC (private conversation).
- We would like to reorganise our current user groups in order to fine-tune permissions. Do you have any dazzling ideas for bicycle-related user group names?
