Find ways to ride, volunteer, and get involved with the Boston Cyclists Union.
Our Google Calendar brings our public activities together in one place and makes it easy to follow them in your own calendar. Selected events also have a page on our website with more details, including what to expect, what to bring, and how to sign up.

For calendar and event maintainers
Why use both?
Google Calendar makes it easy to follow our schedule: people who subscribe receive updates in their own calendar, though changes may take time to appear. Website event pages give us more room for details and a lasting link to share. Keeping useful past event pages also preserves a searchable history of our work and can help people discover BCU through search. The tradeoff is that we need to keep shared event details consistent in both places.
What goes where?
Google Calendar: Add public activities with a brief description and a link to the website event page, if there is one.
Website: Create a page for events that need more details or registration information. Not every activity needs one.
Keep details consistent.
Keep full details on the website event page, or in Google Calendar if there is no page. Match the event name, date, time, and location wherever it appears.
The tools do not sync automatically. The event owner should update both entries when plans change, clearly mark cancellations, and check the public listings. Keep the same website link when updating an event.
Keep private meetings and internal planning notes in a separate calendar.
