All, There is a new web based group ride calendar site a riding buddy of mine wrote that is available on the web at VeloCal.org. It's similar to ClubMTB or ClubRoadie but this one is free. We had been riding with several "buddy" groups that were getting kinda large so when ClubMTB started charging $$ we weren't able to use that service any longer, plus we wanted the ability to see all of our groups on one joins several groups calendar etc.. Another cool feature is that it allows one also one to RSVP to a ride with either (Yes,NO,Maybe + a comment field). Anyway, we like it so much we figured that we would let others know about it too. Right now it only supports the 50 states in the USA. FYI, -Steve

A nice idea, but -- what's your privacy policy, and why isn't it on your registration page? Matt O.

Hi Matt, Good Point! This is really just a grass roots tool that was designed for folks to use that would help facilitate group rides. That being said, we didn't really think about a privacy policy, but we will try and post one soon. Like I stated before this was written by a friend not a corporation so those of us who are using it never really considered that this info would be used for any other purpose. I'll just say for the record, that the info won't be sold, given away etc. Hopefully, soon we will try and cobble together some sort of privacy statement to that effect and post on the www site (http://velocal.org/). Thanks again for the suggestion. -Steve >
