Hey all, as we near the 250th Social Scoop, I was curious how many of you forum goers check it out each week or used to. Also, what sort of content do you like seeing in it most?

I read it every week. I like the moto parts and like the non moto parts. The more the better.

I always have a look, don’t use any sort of social media just forums so see stuff I wouldn’t normally see. That and the good bad and ugly from the races are my favourite part of the home features.

Yeah, I take a look every week, kinda like it since I don't follow the social media much.
Not really interested in the non moto part, though.

I don't usually look at this feature unless I am really really bored at work. I see most everything on social media already.

I feel like this feature is good for Vitards who are not active on social media, but for others, it is just repeat stuff.

I always check it out.

Hard to say which ones I like best. Easier to say which ones I dislike....anything meant to be thought provoking is a drag. I'm usually at work when I'm checking it out so I don't need any additional serious contemplation. Case in point the Reed 22 hat thing from his wife today....if I'm following Ellie anyway, I'm going to enjoy that. But if I just need to get the "social scoop", I don't need to be pondering Chad's trials and tribulations. I have my own.

I enjoy it every week. Like some others, I’m not big on social media so social scoop is just the right amount for me. Keep it up Michael.

Love it and wish it would go back to a Monday schedule. Unless it’s something on my part, but I always seem to get it in Tuesday’s.

I also really enjoy the non moto portion

I don't look forward to it per se, but I almost always enjoy the content when I read it.

With bike testing season, I tend to travel more so sometimes it’s being posted mid day Monday on West coast time. I think it’s only gone up on a Tuesday morning once or twice, but case in point I’ll work on keeping it more towards a Monday morning. ??

Check it every week. There is always great content!


I wish there was a game forum that I could check weekly too. Smile

Any problems viewing it on mobile? I know I had some code problems for a bit but haven’t seen any complaints lately.

Thanks all, glad to see most are happy with it. It’s actually our best averaged viewed feature but it’s always good to know if there can be improvement.

Always been good on mobile for me. Occasionally I’ll have to reload the page for pit bits I believe, but social seems to be good

social scoop is something its good to have a quick look through.
Can only speak for my self, but i spend a lot of time flicking through networks etc.. but due to being in AUS its easy to miss a few things.
So having the social scoop is always good to have a scroll through in case theirs any goss or new news within the industry.

Would be good to include Instagram story content as well.
I find more interesting and cool stuff coming more and more within the Instagram story's of factory teams and riders.
so its cool to get an inside look on somethings. as well as story's only last for 24hrs or so... so its easy to miss.

Even with the JGR team now! they share some cool and pretty funny stuff to here and there.
So i guess that is the only thing i would say, even that that's hard to do. and pushing the improvement side ahaha..
but other then that.. I'm all for it!

Not into the people side of the sport so not my thing. Weekly hardparts scoop would be better.

I read it pretty much every time.

I skip through the crashes usually, especially the non-MX crashes. I am old. I do not like to be reminded that I could crash. You young people still have that, it will never happen to me mentality.
