Plus1 Group Demo: See a Ride Group in the App

An example. Forest Riders isn't a real group, and every rider's name here is made up. These are screens from the Plus1 app, version 1.10, with a sample group.

the group page

The group's home. Riders see the cover, the name, where it rides, what it's about and how to join. Further down: the next rides, the weekly ride that repeats on its own, and the leaders' updates.

The Forest Riders group page: a club in the Forest of Dean, Verified, ask to join, 38 members — Forest Riders, a club in the Forest of Dean

Next rides: Saturday Enduro Loop, Sunday Gravel and Café, and the Tuesday Night Social, which is full with two waiting — Next rides and the weekly ride

Updates from the leaders, and the two leaders, Rowan K. and Chris M. — Updates and leaders

a ride

Tuesday Night Social is the club's weekly ride. It repeats every Tuesday, holds twelve, and this week it's full, so two riders are on the waiting list. If someone drops out, the first in line moves across and gets a notification.

Ride is full, 12 of 12 going, with two maybes and the organiser's tools — Going, and two maybes

The ride's rider list: who's going and when they joined, two riders marked No photos — The leader's rider list

running the group

Everything a leader needs is in one list on the group page. Three riders have asked to join this week, there are 38 members, and attendance for the last 90 days is a tap away, ready to export.

Leader tools: add a repeating ride, riders and attendance, members, edit group, move your group, share group, website and calendar — Leader tools

Three join requests with how often each rider has ridden with the group — Join requests

Riders and attendance for the last 90 days of rides — Attendance

The member list, with two leaders — Members

An update being written to every member — Posting an update

Ready-to-paste posts for Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram — Moving riders across

what riders see

A rider finds the group, asks to join or joins in one tap, and has the group's rides in their Groups tab. After a ride, they're shown what's next.

A ride page for a rider — A ride, as a rider

Not every group has ride leaders. Valley Social Rides, another made-up group, hosts relaxed social rides in four areas, with volunteer ride hosts posting rides for the group. Everyone rides at their own risk, and the page says so.

on your own website new in 1.10

Forest Riders keeps its own website, and doesn't want to type every ride twice. So it doesn't have to:

Your next rides on your site. An upcoming-rides box you paste into your own website once (it's under Leader tools, then Your website and calendar). Every ride you post in Plus1 shows there by itself, with a link to sign up.
A calendar riders can subscribe to. One link, and new rides land in your riders' own calendars without anyone copying them across.
Quick post from a link. Already have the ride on your website or an event page? Paste the link and Plus1 reads the title, date, time and place and fills in the ride for you to check.

make one of these yours

The step-by-step guide goes through every screen above in order, from downloading the app to moving your riders across from Facebook or WhatsApp. If you'd rather not do it yourself, email hello@plus1app.uk with your group's name and your regular rides, and we'll set it up for you.
