THE SOCIAL MEDIA BIKERNET WEEKLY NEWS for May 4, 2017

Hey, Iā€™m not a big fan of social media efforts. What the hell do they mean? Iā€™m lost on a facebook page. I donā€™t do Twitter, Linkedin, Instagram, or Pinterest. I criticize myself for dodging this crap. Friends and associates suggest I spend more time on these elements than on Bikernet. If I spent more time on social media we would have larger reader numbers and less content on Bikernet and less time to work on bikes or ride. I donā€™t have much fun on any of these things and Chris Callen from Cycle Source is about to tell you a terrible story about a Facebook conspiracy. Whatta you think?
