A few folks have already stepped forward. While it would be ideal if the club had members who have years of professional Drupal or PHP experience, that isn't likely. However, a power user willing to have a good look at a Drupal book or at a Drupal online tutor, or an experienced developer willing to do the same with PHP/MySQL, could be a big help with putting a culture of competence around this website. Willingness to learn and willingness to be a careful team player are the requirements. (Any mind-bending problems:  We will either pay for solutions or do without.) I will try to put together a meeting for next week. Send me your email...no commitment involved.

While the menu structure can be modified in the future, the list of officers is currently under "News & Info", then "About". Their NYCC emails won't work until I get a chanct to add them in hopefully tomorrow. Then, you will be able to click on the position to write to the treasurer or president or vp of rides or whoever you need.

 am i the only one who finds the colors used on the new site to be extremely hard on the eyes?

First, with regard to a question on how to return to the top of the message board, the way seems to be to click on "Message Board" at the right side of the top menu. As to search, check out the Search function at the top right of the screen. If you click through to the Advanced Search, you can choose to limit your search to Message Board specifically. Also note the options including searching for a word or a phrase. I tried it and it seems to work OK when I tested. Let me know how it works for you. Also note the different tabs for searching for content or people, etc.

 After reading a thread, the only way I have found to get back to the list of threads on the Message Board is by hitting my back arrow on my browser. There used to be a Threads link to click on. Am I missing this link?

Really sorry if this has been discussed recently.  I just searched (or at least tried to search) on "paint," "painting," etc., with no real results.  Seems hard to believe it hasn't been discussed here, as I seem to remember a thread on it some time ago.

Anyway, I'm interested in getting a couple of older steel frames repainted, and I'm just wondering if anyone here has had a good experience with a local frame painter.  Many thanks in advance, and again apologies if this has come up recently.

 If it's true, as it seems to be, that this new system does not permit anonymous postings, that will be a great improvement to the Message Board.  However, it seems that there are currently a significant number of deficiencies, in both content and implementation, that need to be fixed in this new site.  Reverting to the original site while updates are made might not be a bad idea.

Regarding the cue sheets, the late 2010 message board posts, and much other content...please undersand that the content transfer is not complete. We needed to go live as early as possible with the basic functionality while we still have developer talent on board. Due to holidays, job changes, etc., we couldn't wait. Much content remains to be downloaded. We won't forget.

What happened to pace numbers in the ride listings? The letter class alone isn't really enough. A ride simply listed as "B" may be too fast for some, and slow for others.

I receive error messages when I try to register for the Holiday Party.
