I don't request lifts to events if they are too far for me to ride, hence not requesting a lift to the next Pick up a pilly gathering. Also, most of those offering lifts live too far from me, some actually stating they will give a lift to local folk. Which is fair enough, I don't expect folk to go out of their way. Another issue is the damage to my spine, I can only ride on bikes that I don't need to lean forward all the time.
So that's why I am always asking for a lift.
If some folk read my profile, before commenting, they would already know that. 😀

S17 I have never called you 'thick', it's very obvious that you are far from it. I PM'd you as I thought it would be polite to do so. Apologies for filling up your inbox! 😉. Easy solved DELETE 😁

I don't ever remember seeing the option to offer a lift on the old site but I could be wrong

It's way way back, JP...many years, in fact...!

So long ago even Matt doesn't remember it :)

It might make a difference, but as I said on an earlier message - I think it's a gutsy decision to climb on the back of an unknown bike with a rider people may not know very well.

I hope it improves choices in terms of matching rider to the proximity of a lift.
It does go beyond that, though. Individual tastes of bike; specific individual needs in terms of comfort and riding style...etc

It's on the the list to get done.
It's a long to do list, with a variety of priorities to work through.
New technology upgrade this coming week, as well as improving the performance of the site in general.
I think we need to consider adding this option in terms of weeks, rather than days.
It works as it is, so other stuff will get done first.

@ Sandi
I've met you and had a conversation.
Don't need to read your profile.
Just to be clear :)

There was an option on the old site not only for a person to ask for a lift, but for a rider to make an open offer of a lift.

This option for a an offer to received or offered in either direction would be nice.

Linz and I have just tried to offer each other a lift.

She asked for a lift and I responded. All goes well until Linz tries to accept my offer. There would appear to be no way the pillion can accept the riders offer.

Serenity it's all in good humour I don't think there is anybody on bm that I and many others would not help if they were in need. Ifs a great big family who love to poke fun at each other.

Lost in translation ... Sorry I'm being dimmer than a dim thing! 😊

Back on track anyway, @nick it's good to know this one is "on the list to get done". 👍😁

To any pillys out there needing a seat for an event put your face on the event in the calendar and request a lift. Hopefully a lift will be offered. Good luck! 😀
