"The Rules"
Well, we don't have very many rules, but there are a few.
- The site is about reciprocal hospitality . If you are going to receive hospitality, please plan to give it. If you have only a couch or a meal to offer, put that in your comments, but please plan to offer hospitality whenever you can.
-
The member information on this site is to be used only for members to contact each other about hospitality
, and not for any other purpose. No commercial uses, please, and no non-hospitality uses. People have graciously given their information for the purpose of arranging hospitality.
- The WSL is for hospitality for private individuals (or couples or very small groups) touring on bicycles. Please don't use it for other types of hospitality - for your large group of teenagers doing a cross-country ride, or for your large-group fund-raising event (even though it's for AIDS or cancer or some other fine cause).
- Please keep your information up-to-date, and please be responsive .. Every cyclist deserves to expect at least a response from each host contacted. If your information is out of date or you are not responsive, it can be very frustrating for a cyclist.
-
Please log into the site at least once every year and check your information
. We request that you log into the site at least once every year to check your information and update it. Accounts that get out of date will be deleted (we'll send you an email first).
- Please, oh PLEASE if you contact a host about visiting them and your plans change, let them know! Don't just not show up. There are many complaints in the forums about this.
- If someone shows up at your door without prior correspondence and agreement, please turn them away. Obviously this is your call, but showing up without making arrangements has nothing to do with our organization and is a violation of the ideals of this group.
-
Hosts can request references from previous hosts (or other things).
-
Please let your prospective host know if you have a website explaining your route.
-
If you request notice and someone calls and doesn't give you notice, feel free to say no.
Thanks.
