Hello everyone!

My name is Dale Gunnoe, and Im a new member to GCC. Although I
haven't made it out on a group ride yet, I feel that I should share a
few thoughts with you.

I recently moved here from NYC, but I am a Gainesville native. While
living in NYC, I was responsible for managing a list similar to what
GCC offers for a social group of about 700 members. I emailed weekly
updates and info, etc.

I would highly recommend changing to a program that emails all
members once daily or weekly, rather than multiple emails from every
member. I find that my inbox is cluttered and the emails have
different formats and are hard to read.

An option would be to  consolidate want ads, tips, and ride
schedules, and this info could be  emailed to one member weekly, who
would be the master of ceremonies of email. For example, if you have
something to post, send it to the elected member by a specific day
each week to make the mailing for the following week. I know that for
certain rides, the schedules change, but this would make it very
simple. I used a program called constant contact, which I found very
user friendly and inexpensive.

Thanks for reading this email, and Im anxious to get out on the road
with fellow bicycle enthusiasts!

Dale Gunnoe
