Part 1: Club Account Setup

  • Updated

The Club account works much like a regular account, except it can be used by multiple people to administer routes for your local cycling club. It has its own list of routes, events, and can be used to plan new routes.

Get started with your club account

First, you’ll want to start filling out some details for your club. Give a description and set a profile picture and logo. Any approved Club member that is also an Admin will have the ability to edit your club’s settings and description.

  • After you sign into your own account, on the leftside navigation bar you'll see your club icon.
  • Your new club will have the default club icon until you upload a new logo.
  • Click on the club icon.

 

Set up your club account

To start configuring your account, click the Manage Account button on your club’s navigation bar. Only members with the Admin and Billing Manager permissions will have access to this page.

Click Manage Account

 

Account

The Account tab is where Club Admins can enter information such as the club’s name, subheader, contact information, and load the club’s logo and cover images. All these details will display on your club’s home page once you save.

  • Subhead: A single sentence to describe your club.
  • Facebook URL: (Optional) Paste in a link to your club's Facebook page.
