Good and Bad with Sticky's .. Usually if the Title says where catches my interest as a rule can't run down to the Keys if only have 4-6 hours to work with and am sure the same with others .. on the other hand if get used to knowing how to look for the sticky's may turn out to be a good thing ..
My 2 cents,
While I like the look of PoorBoy's page, it makes alot more work for the moderator. And once the "sticky" is removed, would those threads return to the main page for further viewing and comments?
It might be easier on Dale (and us) if all rides were simply posted with the prefix "LET'S RIDE", then the DATE, then the LOCATION. And once you click on the post, we could only wish the ride info would be laid out like PoorBoy's. Check this out:

Wanting to get this up on our forum section. So sorry for such short notice, but these are the first few minutes of our new GA Crew area!!!!!
When: Saturday, August 27th, Kick stands up at 10am
Meet where: Ball Ground Georgia, Hwy 5 where Howell Bridge Road intersects. Map insert below.
Where we going? - A slow meander up towards Carter's Lake, hit the lake's marina for a hotdog/hamburger. Then to points unknown, or some will head back.
This is a ride just for the heck of it. (the best kind).

Well, if you want to be technical, if we use a "format" to all our posts like Paul uses in the GA forum, then that's a "rule" (kindasorta) and I remember many threads that turned into real good ones when things went off topic and segued into other things.
There's an old saying..."if it ain't broke..."
(PS. No offense to Paul, he is doing a great job with the GA Crew!)

For now I'm throwing them into the sticky area until the date goes by. And yes, because I have the time.

Looks like the majority likes it as is, that is fine with me. As long as I am riding, I am happy! Appreciate everyone's thoughts on this!

What about a sticky that takes you to some sort of calendar, like Google Calendar, that GA Crew and FLA Crew could posts ride on.
Then you could go to the sticky or bookmark the calendar.
Also you could put other upcoming events; Ocala, Bike Week Dates, Sanford Bikefest, etc...
It could be your one stop check in to see what rides are upcoming so you can better plan for them.
You could still post a thread, linking the calendar, stating that you have a ride upcoming. It would take some getting used to, but I think it would be nice to see what's coming up so you could plan.
Just a thought
