New Features for Site:

Hi Gang. Hope you're having brilliant flying weather this weekend like we are in the Midwest of America. It's about 52F (around 14C I think) with bright blue skies..

I've been thinking about adding some new features to the site to make things more interesting. I would like your feedback regarding the same.

1. A "Review" Section of the more popular trike brands and features. Rather than it coming from me, I'd like the owners of each brand to come forward and talk about what they like/dislike about their machines, or machines they've owned in the past. We have a lot of new buyers and shoppers out there, especially with LSA coming to its conclusion by January.
   For example: Here is a really great picture by Paul Hill of his Tanarg parked on the ground with the wing on. I had NO IDEA that the Tanarg had such a COOL feature where the entire mast and fiberglass covers tilt forward in one piece...Awesome! I'd love to know more from Paul Hill or Bob Thompson or Wayne Bezner Kerr about how they like this feature or others on the Tanarg.
   

   

   
   
2. A "New Gear" Section where all the latest accessories are rated and reviewed... by the members. For example, the video camcorders, the headsets, intercoms, etc. Right now the reviews are all coming from me for the most part, but I would like to get a better degree of input from everyone. By indexing these pages, we can create a great resource for future shopping.
   


3. A "Marketplace" Section. This would be for buying, selling, trading, swapping, etc. Since everyone already has a place on their page to put up pictures, videos, information, etc., about their "stuff", the section would be a simple Index of all entries by the members of things they want to put out for consideration. I think this can be easily done with a little "tag" that I can offer to everyone that they put on any entry to their private page postings which would say "marketplace" and this would then allow the site to find and index these entries and put the links all on one page, with pictures, sort of like Barnstormers does now... but for free.

I'm open to any other new ideas or suggestions as well, so please SEND THEM TO ME so we can put them into action!
