About our website!

Welcome to our website.

The idea behind the website is to make it easier for everyone who takes part in our events to make their own contributions to the site, and to make it as easy as possible for it to be up to date with the right information.

The homepage will be updated with all the news articles in date order – rather than being a ‘static’ page. The other sections will contain results and event details, plus links to BMBO for online entry. You may see a box on the homepage that says “Follow” – if you put your email address in here you’ll get an automatic email when the site is updated.

For every post, you can make your own contribution by using the ‘comments’ boxes. It would be great if people added their own race reports to the ones that we publish or any other feedback about the pages.

You have to identify yourself to comments so we can ensure authentic posts. This can be through your Twitter or Facebook identification, or your email address – rest assured your details won’t be published anywhere.

In addition to comments, we’ll be running some ‘voting polls’ to get your ideas for the future (please vote for your favourite 2011 event)

For people who use Twitter  you can follow us at @NYMBO, and our Facebook page is here. We’ll be using Twitter for short updates and to notify when the website is updated. You’ll also see the most recent Twitter update on the web home page. This will be useful for late updates – such as the February when the event was cancelled because of icy roads!!

Over the winter I’ll be updating the site to add a photo gallery, transferring some content from the old webpages and also puting together a sister NEMBOS site. We’ll also be updating the web hosting, so bookmark www.nymbo.org.uk – rather than anything else you may see in the address bar.

If you have any comments about the new site, please docomment below – I’m interested in everyone’s views.
