Road, Audax, and Sportives

Events, Rides, Clubs, and Lift Shares


Are these 2 fora (ums) a bit over-lapping or not?

poll?

 

[Aperitif]

The first one is 'formal' - organised and open. The 'Rides' could be prefaced by "CC and Other..." and the word 'Clubs' moved to the former title.

Giving: Clubs, Road Rides, Audax and Sportives.

and: Events, CycleChat and Other Rides, Lift Shares.

the first one is rides that are definitely going to happen, the latter is rides that might happen if enough people are up for it. i.e., organized rides/disorganized rides.

Agree with teef, maybe a sub fora in Events for the charity ride spammers?

I agree with the OP. If you look at the threads in these forums (fora?) you can see that people are confused about what to post in each - e.g. I have seen informal rides appear in either forum

There was a thread about this a while ago and I suggested they be renamed to something like.

Audax, Sportives, and Road Racing and Informal Rides, Clubs, and Events

Agreed, it gets on my tits that NS posts pics in road etc!

I think Aperitif has banged the nail and his titles work well.

Leave Racing were it is please I dont want to be mixed with Audax and Sportives we have very little confusion about what to post in Racing. Point NS in the direction of buying advice or the gallery.
