Evening all. Newbie here

Decided to join the forum as I have an interest in RIBs and I will be after alot of advice soon. Recently renewed my RIB with a better model and keen to get it up to spec.

Hopefully I will be a member for many years.

Welcome Divertris, RIBnet is like any quality cake, there's a lot of Good Eggs in a Mixture of Currant News and assorted Nuts. And there's a bit of Lard in there too...

Speaking of lard, remember to follow the Light and stay out of the Black Shadows

Welcome Divertris .. am fairly new here myself (after a long bout of absence!), there is often a thread here that covers just about anything and everything rib related (and unrelated!).

Welcome to RIBnet Divertris, like willk says, follow the light and stay out of The Black Shadows... they will just want you to dress to impress

Stay with us long enough and you will see what we mean
