These terms are the agreement between you and National Ride Network. By creating an account, joining the waitlist, buying a membership, or otherwise using the site, you accept them. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.
National Ride Network ("NRN", "we", "us") is a membership network for cyclists. We publish information about group rides, routes, and races, and we negotiate discounts with partner shops, brands, hotels, and restaurants. NRN mainly organizes information about rides rather than the rides themselves; where we do run one, we say so on that ride's page.
We offer a free tier and paid annual memberships. Current prices are shown on the site. Prices are in US dollars and exclude any tax we are required to collect.
Paid memberships renew automatically every year at the price then in effect, charged to your payment method on the anniversary of your purchase, until you cancel. You may cancel at any time from your account settings.
Membership prices are subject to change. A price change never affects a membership you have already paid for — you keep the price you paid for the rest of your year. We will give you at least 30 days' notice by email before a new price applies to your renewal, and you may cancel before it takes effect.
If a renewal payment does not go through, we will let you know and try again over the following days — cards expire and banks decline for all sorts of ordinary reasons. Your membership benefits may be paused while a payment is outstanding, and they resume as soon as it clears. You can update your payment method any time from your account.
Cycling carries real risk of serious injury or death. You ride entirely at your own risk and are solely responsible for your own safety.
You acknowledge and agree that:
To the fullest extent the law allows, you assume all risk arising from riding, and you release NRN from claims arising out of any ride, route, or event you learn about through the service.
We may point members to legal or other professional services. Those firms are independent, we do not provide legal advice, and nothing on the site creates a lawyer-client relationship. Any engagement is between you and that firm.
When using NRN, do not:
We may remove content or suspend accounts that breach these terms.
There is no private messaging on NRN, and there will not be. Members can be as young as 16, and a private channel between an adult and a teenager is the thing we are least able to see and most need to prevent.
So that this is not just a promise:
We have no tolerance for grooming, sexual content involving a minor, threats, or attempts to move a young member into a private conversation elsewhere. Accounts doing any of this are removed permanently and are not restored on appeal.
We report child sexual abuse material to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children as United States law requires, and we will preserve records and cooperate with law enforcement on lawful request — or on our own initiative where we believe someone is in danger. We will not demand a warrant before helping to keep a child safe.
If something on NRN worries you, email nationalridenetwork@gmail.com. If a child is in immediate danger, call 911 first.
You keep ownership of what you post — group names, messages, event details, and anything else. You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, display, and distribute it for the purpose of running the service. You confirm you have the right to post it.
The NRN name, logo, site design, curated routes, and partner listings belong to us or our licensors. You may use them only as needed to use the service.
We aim to keep NRN available but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. We may change, suspend, or discontinue features. If we discontinue a paid membership entirely, we will refund the unused portion.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement. We do not warrant that information on the site is accurate, complete, or current.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, NRN will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of the service.
Our total liability for any claim relating to the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose.
Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud.
You agree to indemnify NRN against claims, losses, and reasonable legal costs arising from your breach of these terms or your misuse of the service.
You may close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your account if you breach these terms, if we are required to by law, or if we discontinue the service. Sections 8 through 13 survive termination.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in California, and you consent to their jurisdiction.
We may update these terms. The date at the top reflects the current version. For changes that materially affect your rights, we will give members at least 30 days' notice by email. Continuing to use the service after a change means you accept it.
