Hmn, haven't we heard this promise before and yet you always seems to be drawn back in ... [:)]
Yeah, hiegh ho. But there's a lot of righteous players now, that prolly know everything. Main forum is mostly just little kids now. Not worth the time to talk to. So long as they don't get a bone in their noses and try talking michaelm into something totally stupid, they are ignorable.
So, hang with friends here, hang a bit with the RA folks on the Scen Forum, keep on top of developments and update Babes when and where necessary, play some of our latest scenarios, post some bike pictures; kinda like semi-retirement. Still in, but way on the periphery.

I rather think Beaudy needs a more suitable moniker than "beast rider". Something more along the lines of "hell hound" if you want Beaudy to earn the respect of that 10k doberman. After all, the word "rider" conjures up a connotation of the involvement of a second party (aka you/the machine) and you wouldn't want his peers to believe he is shackled as to what he can do.
Yes ... as a monikor "hell hound" has that more edgy feel to it. You want that doberman to feel a bit like Ichabar Crane hearing the approaching hoof sounds of the headless horseman.

'Beast rider' is good. The little Beaudy Bear sure ain't no 'hell hound'. Only way he could hurt you is lick you to death. "Beast rider' moniker is good because that tells other bike riders that the pup belongs to a bike rider and the pup is a bike rider too. What I hear from my local HOG chapter is even the most hardcore MC people will always come over to pet the dog and talk to you. A strange kinda respect thing that's going on there.
[ed] spelling and stuff.
Ah, I see we have, ahem, slightly different views on the demands being placed on michaelm. I'm not as sanguine that he hasn't been prevailed upon to introduce certain enhancements which IMHO are contrary to the fundamental game design principles.
Good to know that if I see a bandana wearing rottweiler atop a Harley (a Ducati might be a more artistic scene) I can approach the generic beast rider. The only concern would be whether I'm wearing a raincoat to protect me from the canine's slobber. Actually I would have approached him anyway even without the latest intel.
BTW, you may be unaware of this, but there are some people who actually complain about canine breaths and being licked. For these poor specimens of homo sapiens, Beaudy's described behaviour would be the epitome of a hell hound.
I say, unleash the inner hell hound. Perhaps some extra garlic in the Bolognese pasta sauce fed to Beaudy would enhance the strength of his breath. For pasta selection I've found penne to be far superior to spaghetti or fussili for canines. Tortellini are not a bad option either.
