I've just signed up for this year's DGR. Not the A10 through Edinburgh this time but the 1913 Douglas on a solo ride. Bet it rains!
Great photo!

I've signed up, but hoping "Ride Solo" will be converted to one of the other forms befoe the end of May. As for myself, fully vaccinated, so not too worried about exposure, particularly at 40 MPH.

G'day Fellas.
I see their web site is still 3rd rate! Just spent 1/2 hour trying to register (5 times) to no avail  *ex* They can see by my email address I've registered before. I've reset password twice but just get sent round and round. Not doing much for my "mental health" or the keyboard  *problem*
Cheers

I've just been trying to register for a DGR ride local to me. I've logged on successfully. I've tried three times to register for the ride without success. That's it, I'm out of here 😕.

Is there a way to communicate with the organisers to tell them what I think of their crappo website?

I've communicated with them almost every year to get the forum team listed as "Worldwide Ride" and have a friendly relationship. I've also shared some of our members' frustrations, but not sure if that changed anything.  Just try emailing them. They will likely respond to a civil exchange.

G'day Fellas.
Yes the same as always. Tried to log in and register but just got the run around. They haven't improved the web site at all  *pull hair out*
Cheers
I won't be able to ride as it's only 2 weeks after operation (I hope).
