Congrats on the article... So, I have to ask...

Did you ever think that the site you started so long ago would grow so big? Did you think it would get industry recognition or legitimacy through printed press?

legitimate
2le·git·i·mate
Pronunciation: -"mAt
Function: transitive verb
Inflected Form(s): -mat·ed; -mat·ing
: to make legitimate: a (1) : to give legal status or authorization to (2) : to show or affirm to be justified (3) : to lend authority or respectability to


What's next??? A board of directors and a stock offering???

Umm.... I just posted that after reading the article from motorcycle.com (an enemy of this site?).

Someone there mentioned that if you crash a motorcycle in LA it is your fault because you couldn't handle it, I'm not sure if that's true but if it is then the cagers aren't liable for anything.
