Moderators (requests and notices)

No offence Corny but comparing football threads to pro racing threads isn't a sensible comparison.

Currently there is a 2012 Pro-Cycling thread, there was a Tour de France 2012 thread, there is an Olympic Road Race thread, I'm sure in due course there will be a Vuelta 2012 thread, if there isn't already. But no one feels the need to merge them into one almighty Pro Cycling thread.
Shock horror, multiple threads about multiple races on a cycling forum in a sub forum called Rides & Races.

Go here and try starting a thread about lots of different cyclings events. I would wager they'd be merged or deleted in minutes.
