I only really post in the commuting forum and I dont think a womens section is needed there, I thought just a general womens section could be good.

Could we have a women's road bike section again, please?
Or perhaps an overall women's section with some more specialized groups within it, like the current MTB one and a group for roadies, one for commuting, ... etc etc

As Nicklouse said, there used to be one in road. It was pretty quiet and IIRC had more male than female posters. It went after we had a forum cleanup.
We did have a thread to gauge opinion at the time and the majority of women said that they preferred posting in the various sub forums rather than being segregated in a seperate women's one.
If there's sufficient interest in recreating one then we could look at doing so.
There are also plenty of women reading the road forums. Try posting a question in one and see how you go.

Is women's road cycling not on the increase?
I'm assuming that's why I'm finding it so difficult to locate a women's specific road bike in Scotland at the moment...
I've posted on the women's MTB forum area and would also post on a women's specific road bike forum area.
When was the last women's road bike forum removed? Could it be time for a review?

I would post on the general area but I was trying to search for mewbie advice for buing a women's specific bike and I was getting threads from tall men with long legs and short bodies...
So it was more for ease of finding things in future.
You could request a separate mens section if you think there's a need for it and you think it's useful. It's not something that I would specifically look for but just because I wouldn't use it it doesn't mean that it's necessarily a bad idea.
