I’ve recently completed a major upgrade to the Members Area on the club web site.

 

You can now update your membership in riding groups, and join or leave as needed.  You do this in the My Riding block.  When you are a member of a group, you can see who else is in the group.

 

One capability available to a group (when implemented by the Group Captain) is a facility to allow members to send email to the entire group.  This is useful for discussing how the group is riding, general discussion, and announcing non-ride social functions.  (It is important for insurance purposes that all rides be announced via GCCMail.)  When implemented, the mail is composed and transmitted from the Members Area; it does not run through your email program.

 

The group web pages (in the Rides menu on the general web site) are now actively generated so that the Group Captain can make updates as necessary without waiting for the Webmaster to do HTML programming.

 

If you want to start a new group, there is a button you can push to get the process started.  New groups can be Road Groups, Off Road Groups, Trail Riding Groups, or Interest Groups.  The latter category is new, and provides for groups that do not schedule rides. 

 

There is a lot of new software that runs all of this stuff.  Please let me know if you see something that is not working correctly.
