If it goes, will the website and anything posted before the cut off date go?
Yes.
I'll leave a small link to the discord, but everything else will disappear and then be deleted.
There will be no backup kept after the closure, to ensure the privacy and safety of all private parts of the forum I will delete it all.
The public parts will be archived by ArchiveTeam and made available by the Wayback Machine.

Really sorry to read this and just want to add my thanks to @Velocio for all of your work on this and running the forum over the years, as well as the other moderators in the background.
For the last year or so I've had a lot of shit on where I live and I've had so much help and advice from people on here in bastard neighbours and the home owning thread. Not ridden much but that has kept me on an even keel. Before that and in slightly happier times, I met some amazing people through here who were total strangers and are now friends. I did my first bikepacking trip with total strangers whilst I was at uni. I got so much out of this place. There's a corner for everyone and everything. It will be a disaster to see it go.
Now I need to quickly flog some stuff in the classifieds ..!
