The field length for the start location is too short on the public view summary. I don't want to describe in words how to get there. I prefer to show the url for the start location on google maps. The current version of the ride summary truncates the url rendering it useless.

I posted a Lost Lake ride for Saturday, 3/25.

I found the instructions useful and fairly straightforward.

I had a few comments on the ride posting process.

1) The date should default to today instead of 2099-12-31.

2) Adding a photo is too cumbersome. First I have to upload it, then I have to select it from an ever growing library of uploaded photos. I mistakenly uploaded the wrong photo and couldn't figure out how to delete it from the library of uploaded photos. Most other applications let you insert images without adding them to a library of images first.

3) Page 14 of the instructions says "Click this button" but no button is highlighted in the screen capture.

I'm happy to help shake out the new website, and have completed items 1, 2 and 4 detailed in the email of march 10th.

When I try to create a ride, the first page I see has 10-15 steps listed - this looks daunting and I balked at trying to post a ride. My immediate reaction is YIKES - no way I'm going to spend time trying to figure all that out.

So if 10-15 steps are truly needed, I recommend organizing them into 3-4 sub-groups, because 3-4 "tasks" looks doable at first glance vs list of 10-15 tasks.

Thanks for listening
