What? You didn't see the 3 Colnagos sell for $325 ea?

Ha! :)

[Bruce K]

Still waiting for all the info from our hosting site but apparently we were the victim of a cyber attack/hack.

It took a while for them to get things back up and running but we appear to be OK for now.

Keith should have more info later.

I lowballed them down to $175 each. Said they had no other responses. Sorry you guys missed it.

[Keith A]

I don't have any details yet, but just know that it was a malicious attack on our server. I don't have the details yet and I don't know why it took so long to restore this either, but I hope to have some answers tomorrow.

:mad:

Well, then let me preemptively thank you and Keith and the other mods for whatever you're doing to help get us back on track.

The hackers may now know where we all live and the sweet bikes we have.

On the positive side, I was extremely productive at work today ;)

[malbecman]

I 2nd that...many thanks for helping get the site back up and running. I felt a little lost without my daily fix. :help:

[Bruce K]

It was all Keith

He was the one dealing with our hosting company.

Just don't be trying to flip them for double what you paid :banana:

Thanks admins :)

Oh great. The computer geeks hack the bike nerds. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot is the world coming to!?!

[seanile]

obviously a ploy by VS to up their membership activity
:p

[Shoeman]

Hopefully the members email's weren't compromised!!!

[Exonerv]

Until about noon, I was blaming the latest update from Tapatalk. I still think it could be their fault.

[VTCaraco]

You don't realize how much you miss the distraction until it's gone...

I appreciate the efforts to get the forum up and running again. If the thanks should be directed to Keith, a big thank you.

[Satellite]

I even got to play hookie from work, the Commander called Snow Day and NO Paceline. :fight:

If there is a God he just played a cruel trick on me. :bike:

Must be having a chit-chat with Dennis?

Funny.... I did finally register over there today

:banana:

[Dead Man]

I did not post, though. The vibe is so weird... atmo. I know I've asked at least a couple times what "atmo" means, but I can never remember. They seem to use it like Smurfs use "smurf."

[kramnnim]

I got more done at work today... :hello:

[victoryfactory]

ATYP*
If you think about it,
We could actually be the ones who are across the hall. No?

Whoa!

*according to your perspective

[Cicli]

I got more done at work today... :hello:

I called in sick. I can't work with all the uncertainty.

[nighthawk]

Paceline is unreliable.... Vsalon has too many sub forums... That's it, I'm starting a new bike forum. Think I'll call it "Across the Hall".

[jr59]

I blame -7

sram?

Why would anybody hack a bike forum? Just cuz they can? Practice for hacking the DOD forum?

" I found when doing high AOA stalls in the F-16 block 60, the aircraft always falls off on the right wing. Is this software or am I inputing........"

[Gsinill]

NRA!

Too much anti-gun sentiment in the "packing heat" thread...

As other said: thanks to the mods (especially Keith) for running this site and getting it back up! :beer:

[mktng]

Tax season. Tax man is checking sale records.

[eippo1]

Actually, what happened is that the Boston MBTA was asked to run Paceline for a bit. Everyone knows what happened next...:fight:


Also, thanks Keith. You rock and it's time for me to make a contribution anyway since I sold some stuff. Everyone else who has recently sold should do the same :P

[BumbleBeeDave]

Keith was trying out some new macros on the server and, well . . .

. . . accidents happen. :rolleyes:

[BumbleBeeDave]

Keith deserves a HUGE thank you from all of us. I can't count how many times he has dropped what he's doing to tend to some technical issue that has laid the forum low. Without him and his dedication we would have WAY many more problems and this place would be WAY less enjoyable.

[guido]

Thank you Keith!

[Fatty]

Can't buy the man a beer so I made a meager donation to the Paceline.:banana:

This times a thousand

[brownm68]

Thank you, Keith!! You are the MAN!!!:banana:

[oldpotatoe]

Because of some head butting between Ben and me, I would never donate to a 'Serotta' forum, but I just donated a few buck$ to the Paceline forum, thanks to the moderators.

[Keith A]

Thanks guys. I hope to be upgrading our sever platform very soon which should help prevent these type of attacks. But we all know, that if they really want to hack your site, then they will find a way.

I'm not sure how much downtime the upgrade will take, but will give everyone plenty of notice.

[Gsinill]

Did he like SRAM???

[BumbleBeeDave]

. . . and got this shot of his current setup, so we definitely need to make some changes. :rolleyes:

Now that picture brings back some memories. The Commodore 64 was my first computer when I was a kid.

[Vonruden]

Thanks Keith

This is the upgraded server. We moved up from a Vic 20. Oh yea, Dave does not wear a zebra suit, it is really more of a skin suit. ;)

[BumbleBeeDave]

. . . all my personal kit is going to come from HERE. (http://muscleskinsuit.com/)

Only Mario Cipolini can get away with kit like that.

And many thanks, Keith. With the server down yesterday, I had to actually do some <shudder> work. :eek:
