Q.

Do I still need a UserName and Password to sign in?

|
A.
|
No. To make it easier for you and fellow Members, we have eliminated that part
of the registration.
Please note that you must still register to post messages on the Club bulletin
board. You will find the REGISTER link at the top right section of any page
on the bulletin board.

Q.
|
My Last Name does not match Club records.
|
|
A.
|
Please check your entry for spelling errors. If your name has an apostrophe,
hyphen or suffix like Jr. or Sr. you may need to enter it as well. The easiest
place to check how your Last Name should appear is on the mailing label of
your Club magazine, Rider.

Q.
|
My Member Number does not match Club records.
|
|
A.
|
Please check your entry for typing errors.
Your 8 digit Member Number appears on your membership card validation sticker, on Club correspondence and on the mailing
label of your Club magazine, Rider. If you recently became a member online, your member number appears
at the top of the Welcome to the Club e-mail you received immediately after joining.
When using the Member Number as it appears on the magazine label, do not
include the single digit that appears after the space behind the longer
series of numbers (e.g., if you were to see 01234567 9, you would not use
the 9).

Life Members, make sure you are including enough numbers in the field.
If you have a 7-digit number, try adding 0 in front. If you've just become a Life Member (less than 1 month ago) click here.

Q.

What does "Remember my Sign In information" mean?

It is ideal to have the system remember your Member Number, Last Name and e-mail
address so that you do not need to sign in each time you visit the site. With
this information saved you can go directly to the home page or other bookmarked
page. Do not select this option if you are using a public computer or a computer
that other individuals routinely use. Please note that you must have Cookies enabled in order for this option to work.
