Hosting a Fabulous Ride
Let's get out and ride together! Just create a route and post an event. Permission to post rides is granted upon request.
Posting on Meetup.com
Posting an event on Meetup is easy, like filling out a form. Meetup has an in depth article on Posting Events. Be sure to announce your event to members, so they know it's time to RSVP. Use "Event Comments" at the bottom of an event to communicate with people coming to the event down where it says "Start the Conversation". Add a link to your route in your event. If you want people with a free RideWithGPS account to navigate the route, see "Posting your Route to RideWItheGPS" below.
The Route
Getting a route is easier than ever. Work in the ETC Route Library add the route to an event and make it available for navigation. Go the the Route Library Help Page to learn how. If that is too much or club helpers can create a route and or post the event for you. Just email our helpers .
Ways to make a route
If you have technical issues or questions, use the free RideWithGPS Club Support

I have designed ETC club Jerseys through the Voler Custom Express program. These are the same jerseys sold at the NWTR 2023. Like the NWTR jersey, I ordered "Classic" Jersey, which is a looser club fit. The cost is $99 per jersey. You can order any time, with 2 week production, and free shipping.
There is a discount of 5% for an order of 5+ Jerseys and a discount of 10% on 10+ Jerseys. Go on Facebook and see if anyone else wants to get in on a group order. With free shipping, it is worth paying full price for the convenience. Other discounts you will find online don't apply to custom express orders
