Clubs: Create your own Group on Everyday Cycling
Everyday Cycling's great new groups feature means that your cycling club can create it's own online community. Everyday Cycling now lets you:
- Start online discussions - chat online with your clubmates about important club issues
- Blog your rides - share your experiences of the latest races, club runs or chain gangs, including uploading photos and youtube video
- Log all of your riding and create mileage challenges - get all of your computer savvy clubmates to sign up and start logging their miles - you'll be amazed at how all that pedaling adds up
- Upload your club's bikes - you and your clubmates view and comment on each other's bikes online
Even if your club has got it's own website, starting a group on Everyday Cycling can add a whole new dimension to your clubs online presence. You can use it to help promote your club or as a members only benefit. Thanks to our privacy settings, the choice is yours.
Think of your Everyday Cycling Group as a virtual clubroom where you can drop in at any time and catch up with your clubmates.
How to set up a group:
- Log in to Everyday Cycling
- Click the My Groups tab on the left
- Click 'Create Group'
- Add profile text and an image
- Choose your privacy setting - Invitation Only means that the club is a private 'online clubroom'. Public means that everyone can see your group (great for promoting your club to a wider audience) - however, you'll still have full control of who joins.
- Click invite friends and then follow the on-screen instructions to email your club members.
Note: your club members will all have to register with the site to take part. If they are already British Cycling Silver or Gold members they can log in with their British Cycling website login and password.
