Guys n' Gals.

The site and everything involved is now getting too large for me to do everything myself and maintain growth at the current rate. In the last year we've trebbled our traffic, and this month will be hitting over 1,400 unique, new visitors a day (about 90,000 page requests) and taking advantage of the position to improve road safety is high on the agenda.

Can anyone help out?

I want to start running events, nationwide, that people can attend, for free. So, I'm looking for someone to research events we could setup, organise and get people involved.

I also want to start producing more material for the press and utilise resources available. I am looking for a press researcher / contact. I have ideas on how data can be easily compiled, again I just dont have the time.

There are admin tasks that need to be done, but again, finding the time is difficult. There is an opportunity to make a difference and do something worthwhile. If you would be interested in helping out. Please PM me.

Darren

I will help you in any way I can.

I'm especially keen on the event stuff.

As an IAM group observer, I'll also put my services forward in that way.

Boring question..........how do we stand legally, insurance etc ?

Me too Darren - not quite sure what I can do but I will help if time/distance etc permits. I'm quite good on the communucations side (email/phone calls to get contacts etc) and like Nigel I also help out with manning the Bristol group's stand at local events and talking to the public.

Put me on our list.

Darren,

As I'm taking over as secretary to our local advanced drivers association in May I'm not too sure at the moment how much time this will take.

So, rather like Safety has said really 'online' would be a good way to describe. What do you mean by 'admin tasks'?

Thankyou for being courteous to horses and riders :)

As the others said, if I can be of assistance then just ask.

As an Admin myself on a busy Bike Forum, and as an Training Officer and Tutor with my my loca lRoADAR group, I can at times overstrech myself, but if there is anything, or something you want, I will do my best to try and help out.

OK everyone, thanks for your responses. I will be PM'ing some of you with a list of tasks. Let me know if you can take one or more of them on.

A bit late in responding perhaps and I am not sure exactly what I could do but ... I am willing to try if you have the tasks.
