Hello Fellow AMTRA Members
I decided back in February to Start up a New facebook page, as the old one is a bit user Unfriendly.
The page works like any other Page, so feel free to take a look, and if you are interested you can request to become a Member, just click on the Join button and your request to join the group will happen within the Hour.
Tim Wainwright and myself will be looking after the Page, so if you have any questions, just send us a Message on Facebook.
PS:  We went live last night and have over 150 members so far, with lots of members adding photo's and Video's.

Regards Pete

Had a look at the Facebook site - now I know where you all are.
It's just more time to be flat out!

Are the upcoming rides still going to be listed here, or do I have to be on Facebook now to participate?

The intention is to keep the AMTRA calendar as the main ride calendar and link people from FB group to the club calendar.
FB group is an addition to, not replacement of, the AMTRA website and forum.
The older I get, the slower I was.

Now I know why the world economy is on the slide - it's the time you can waste on bloody facebook while creating or building ZIP!

And like computers and smart phones it looks like it's here to stay, unfortunately.

So my question is - how much money and time can we save by ditching this web site?

What’s so unfortunate about smartphones computers and Facebook
With out these you’d have no photos and stories to tell, no way to reminisce on the good ol days

There’s no intention at all if ditching this website, it’s still the heart of AMTRAs operations. Facebook can only do 30 % of what the Web page can do.

If you want to save money ditch the donations

Good to see lots of activity on the FB group, but we do have members who are not, and do not want to be, on FB. Like they say in the ad - Why not have both. :)

We use the website because it is ours, we get to say what goes on it and how. It also lets us manage club membership. But there are members and non-members that can interact with the club through FB and the more that happens the better.
