Please use the Facebook page for trivia, silly pictures, personal fun items - and keep the serious stuff for the forum.

Please don't let the forum be "serious stuff only"  :)
I like to find fun items in it as well!  :)

Regards,

Josep

IMHO, the main advantage of linkage forum with FB is the flexibility of informing where you are on the bike and what are you doing there (max. 2 minutes via cell phone). It is kind of instant short message instead of writing report later.

Nothing against FB (I don't know it) but, I think we have no more (not enough?) reports here... Some links to Google+, but no more reports, and in fact not so much pictures...  :(

I like FB, it allows me to choose my 'friends' and those people I am interested in - it is not just about motorcycles.

Im afraid that the majority of our community will visit more often the fb page and less our historical forum and soon or late this forum will die.Please dont allow this , let the fb page just to invite  the varadero owners across the globe visit our forum , all the informations and tips must only be shared on our official forum. I will support every choice that you will proceed .

Another benefit, for example: only through Facebook I've found out that there is quite vast Varadero community in Argentina. Those guys ride a massive loads of km, and on heavenly beautiful roads. Most probably they don't know about our forum, or they don't speak english.

Can the FB page of this community be free for access for everybody.
I'm not accustomed from FB (still not in) but I have access to some pages; but not "our".  :-\

Definitely would like to see a more light hearted side to the forum as we are not all kings of the tech world.

Sign up to FB and it will be accessible!  :-*

Btw... the interface with FB (share your postings HERE at VCI with your FB page) is unfortunately still not fully operational as you might have discovered.

Reason... there is no help...  :'(
