You don't really have to but it allows you
to post and signup for rides. If you don't log in and join, we can't keep
track of you.
Settings
What are my customized
settings all about and how do I change them.
You can control the following
aspects of this site:
What colors to use for the decorations
and background
How much text and graphics you want to
see (good to not show graphics if you are on a slow dial up modem for
example)
What state you live in so we can filter
and only show you rides, venues, and discussions that are near you. You
can easily switch to another state for a short while to see what's going
on.
Firewall and Connection
Problems
I am behind a firewall
and the Java applets don't work. What do I do?
If you are viewing Radless
from your office and they have a firewall, it may prevent some features
that depend on Java from running. A good example is the drop-down menu
system at the top of the page. If you can see this, you should change your
default Graphics Mode to either "text" or "graphics with no Java."
Ride Sign Ups
How do I sign up for a ride?
How do I cancel my signup if I can't make it.
To sign up for a ride, go to
the ride calendar and when you see the ride you want to sign up for, click
on the small icon of a man.
Ride Scheduling,
Re-scheduling and Cancellation
Who can post or schedule a
ride and how do you do it?
Anyone can schedule a ride.
This includes other clubs. We encourage this. You can post personal
rides or group rides. Just go to the ride scheduling section.
You fill out a short form in which you specify where the ride will be
held, what date, what time, estimated ride time, and a few miscellaneous
other things. It's really easy. You can also reschedule the ride if
the weather doesn't look good or cancel the entire ride by deleting it.
Posting Images on the Site
How do I post my profile
picture?
First you must have been
logged on to the system as a member. Next go to the bottom of any screen
and click on the lower, left-hand corner photo. If you already have
picture posted, you will set it. If you don't there will be funny little
picture. Anyway, click on the photo and the next screen will prompt you to
browse to the file on your system. Once you find your good picture, click
the Upload button and in a few moments (or longer on dial up connections)
your image will appear and be permanently stored on our site. That is,
until you take it off or quit Radless.
To Get or Not to Get Email
I don't want to receive email
notices from Radless. How do I get myself off the list?
If you are member, go to the
main menu at the top of the screen and select "Membership" option,
followed by Member Profile. At the
top of your member profile, click on the "Edit" link. Once in your
member profile edit form, look for the field that says, "Keep My Email
Hidden" and select the option, "No, Hide it."
Find information on this
site.
How do I find information on
the site?
Use the search box at the top
of the screen. Type in one or more words that will help you find the
information. It works just like Yahoo. The search engine will
return any matches from the membership, rides, articles, venues, or
discussion databases.
Discussion Groups
Who can participate in
discussions and how do I get involved?
Any one can post to our
boards. Keep it courteous and you can say
anything you want.
