Let's start a Colorado email list...

so whenever anyone's planning a trail ride, instead of missing the ride all together from not checking the boards, we'll all be notified that a ride is getting together. Also, if a thread is started, we'll at least have a direct link to it, rather than having to check the boards on a daily basis to see what's going on.

I don't know about you guys, but my time is very limited right now, and this would be a drastic help in organizing local rides. What does everyone think?

Chris

P.S. I've also email Corey about setting up the trail planning and reports by State to help cut down on search time too. Plus, if he can it, I thought it would be cool that we could just sign up to be notified anytime a new thread is started in the planning section so we don't miss a good trail run.

I'de be up for that. I almost always forget to check this part of the board so an email alert would be awesome.

I think it would just make life so much easier when trying to gather up some people to go ride. Hopefully, Corey will say it's possible. If not, we could probably do it outside of the board pretty easily too. But, I'm hoping Corey say it's easy to do on Yotatech!

Let's pass the word as much as possible. I don't know everyone yet, but let's try to email or pm each other to come to this thread, chime in, and then it will be a tad easier to compile a list on Yotatech if Corey says it will work out. Cool?

You already have the option to receive an email whenever someone posts to this sub forum.

You can subscribe to the whole section here, and not just one thread.
Use the drop down list as seen in this screen capture.

Is this kind of like what you were wanting?

I did not want to log out, so I fired up the Fox to see if the option was still there as I am not logged in via the Fox.

We can start a list of a yahoo group.

Mostly people on YT who are planning trips are in Cali, out east or here in CO.

I am off the trail for a while, but there does not seem to me enough volume here to split it.

Well, what do you guys think? Yotatech still has a ton of traffic, and I love to spend time here seeing what's going on, but Corey has the ability for us to be notified if anyone posts to any of the threads in the trip planning section, which is one area of what I was talking about. I just signed up for the whole section, so let's try that first, cool?

And, if we want to set up an email list, why don't we just do it on Yahoo. I'll have a list made here in a minute and post back to see what you guys think. This way we can easily send each an email if Yotatech doesn't work for some reason, and we can't miss a trip.

Ok, guys, here's the new yahoo group list. What do you think?

1) Group Name = Colorado-trips
2) Group Home Page = http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Colorado-trips
3) Group email = Colorado-trips@yahoogroups.com

Does that work for you guys? If not, I'm sure I can change some of the details.

So, my recommendation is to sign up for notifications on Yotatech in the trip planning section, for the whole section. Then sign up on the new Yahoo list, and we can't miss a trip ever.

Chris

I am in the Yahoo group

To all,

I just signed up for the Yahoo group. This could be a good idea.
