Are we able to display our location under our avatar?

It can be handy at times to see where someone is located when you read their posts.

If someone doesn't want to show this then they could put whatever they like (like Timbuktoo!).

Great idea Scarp. If we all did this, we might find there are others in our area to go ride with.

I'm in.

I'm not sure why everyone would need to go into their profile and manually change their 'personal text' when it could be done automatically using the 'location' entered at sign up!

Just like they do in other forums!
and that was my suggestion!

Yeah fair enough, I just thought at the moment since the option is not there then one way of doing it is the way I suggested But I understand the point your making
