Are people not posting because it's only available to members?

So members wanted the forum and we put one together but no one posts. It made me think, are people not posting because it's only available to members?
So I've decide to open it up to the public instead of just members. I'll be monitoring it for weird stuff.
Happy Posting!

Happy New Year Everyone!

To Happy & Prosperous riding

Sunday's Ride... Waldport-Newport June 24

Howdy WOWSTERS,

We'll be riding our motorbutens this Sunday June 24 from Wilsonville's Holiday Inn next to the gas station off I-5 taking the right exit headed south from Portland. Wheels in Motion at 8am, bladders empty. Read the group riding guidelines posted on our website womenoftherivers.org and will go over any questions before we head out. It'll be an all-day ride down to Albany, out Hwy 34 through Alsea to Waldport then Hwy101 up to Newport. We'll talk about the route back at lunch in Newport.

Rain is Your Choice. See You There!
