yeah, DDH, mess around with it a bit, it's pretty complicated.
but somewhere it has clubs and which clubs you want to give the miles to.
then YOUR miles help TE!

I love bikejournal too!
Has anyone signed up for the premier membership? ($20 year I think). I want to use some of the filters (ie how many miles etc on which bike) but you have to be a member. Is it worth it?

I love bikejournal.com. I have premier membership. I don't use the filters, but I figure it's worth supporting Sean in his efforts.
I log my miles with my local club, not with TE, but eventually I think they'll work it out so that you can log with two clubs.

So what do the clubs get when you give them your miles? Just prestige of having lots of miles from different members?
Does it put them on top or something so more people see them?
I'm just curious.

Thank you for the reminder. I keep forgetting to add my miles.

I also sent $20 for the effort involved. Premier members can put "view my journal" on their profiles (mine's been viewed 40 times... probably 20 of them m3 :-)) and I get to see that I'm ranked the #1 female in Illinois for mileage (tho' that might be temporary, since another rider has been "on a biking tour" for over a week and might just put in 1000 miles when she returns).
No prizes ('cept that monthly giveaway), it's all "honor system," and I had to discipline myself to stick to progress towards my goal instead of moving ahead in the ranking, which could become a misplaced priority...
and yea, add those miles Gotta get to that goal! about 75,000 miles to go...

I have been on bikejournal.com since I started, but didn't have a club. I am happy to say that have now named Team Estrogen as my club affiliate - I was #200. WOO HOO!!
