There's way more adverts than there were previously, and if they start prioritising bandwidth to premium users, our connection speed will suffer.

More adverts? I haven't noticed any more. Mine is just as quick as it was before.

People have to make money broseph. Man up and deal with it. They aren't gonna change it just cause it doesn't suit you.

"I'm not being it neither" means you're going to buy it.

Oh yeah, and the 'good old pinkbike' is still here. You're using it right now. Free of charge.



Nah I'm not, honestly, I can't afford it anyway, and yeah the good old pinkbike was meant by not having this plus crap on here.

Tim, just because it's an acceptable fate doesn't mean you have to persuade yourself that it's right. Even though it has to be like this, for the website to maintain itself, it still shouldn't be.

She is a he.

And using the excuse of paying for ad removal is a poor one. There are other, free ways of not having any ads on your internet browser. To be honest, right now as I see it there is no reason for me to buy the plus membership. In the future though, I would definitely look into upgrading to a plus member for the fact that I would get a certain percent off at bike shops and bike parks.

With PB +, when they take off the ad's, they are actually removing the ad's so that they don't load thus making your PB load faster. Adblock still loads all the ad's... Just sayin'. It seems like the card is much more of a benefit for members in BC currently...

I don't see why anyone from the UK would upgrade, because we won't benefit from the offers and the roadtrip card.

Don't upgrade then. It doesn't effect the pinkbike you currently use if you don't so stop complaining
