It will help.
Most of the donation total comes from the £2-£7 per month regular amounts people do.
The one-offs really help when things crunch, but it's too inconsistent for me to predict and leads me to do this annoying "bang the drum" thing.
The regular few quid, whatever you're cool donating, is the best way for all. You don't feel it, we can predict it... everything is cool.

leads me to do this annoying "bang the drum" thing.
this is really useful for me btw*, and I don't think it's annoying at all when it's in the Donations thread. when things get a bit more desperate and it turns into a top-of-page banner, well, everyone understands that too.
(* my Paypal credit card's about to expire and it makes it more likely that I'll actually remember to switch it sometime sooner rather than later. that only happens every few years, but there's always something, and it's useful to be reminded even if you are a regular donator, to check the amount is still appropriate, could it go up a bit etc)
On the first of June I'll be setting up a monthly donation of a couple of quid.
I've always been one to just dump 10-20 quid in the coffers but I'm never consistent.
I pay monthly for Eurosport to watch bikes (and other sports of course) and now I'll pay to read/chat bikes.
Hope it helps.
