The long process of stakeholder cleanup
Quote | Reply
we have a tool, which some of you have seen, many of you have not. its our mapofeverything.

which i may embed on the forum. or at least a prompt to it. i point this out because it's long been due for cleanup, so i'm asking for a big crowdsourcing effort here. what i know we do BADLY now is list races. this will be a major effort for us going forward. what we are much better at is all the other stakeholder groups on that map.

so, my request, is that each of you look at the fitters, bike shops, run stores, clubs, coaches and:

1. PRIMARILY tell me who is no longer in business but still has a listing.
2. SECONDARILY tell me who really ought to be on this master listing but who isn't.

thanks in advance for your help.

Your map of everything doesn't include my 2 countries, Canada, or Bermuda.

In Bermuda, you want to add Winners Edge Bike Shop (winnersedge.bm) and Bicycle Works (bicycleworks.bm)

How do we do this? Not efficient to do it in a forum thread. Could be thousands of shops, events, and people to add. Can the unwashed add content to the map w/o requiring admin participation? Do the charms of that idea outweigh the risks? Maybe your database could track which users made which changes, as a means to help everyone behave.

In Maine:

Peak Performance Multisport is gone and has been for a while. Fleet Feet Maine Running is pretty much there now at 309 Marginal Way. Midcoast Multisport is gone. Fleet Feet Maine Running's second location is now there. Freeman's Bicycle Service is now Boulder Nordic Sport Bike, run by Marc (who was Josh's assistant). Josh has gone on sabbatical. I can probably be removed as a contact for MRC, as should Maggie.

You should have CycleMania on the list, as there was a Road Show there in conjunction with FFMR.

In CT:

Pacific exited run shoes, so I would end that. I need to add the Sound Runner locations, as they're the best run shops in the state. Targetraining is now just focused on the group ride/bike side of the business, so they need to be off the run listings, too. Cycleogy is listed twice for the same location.

I think that covers everything I have knowledge of...

great. now, about the ADD part. that's a bit of a longer process because i need to have the store participate and i don't chase stores. i don't know what brands they carry, when they open and close. they need to help. so the BEST thing for a STORE to do is to help themselves.

but what i CAN easily do is delete a store that is no longer there. or a coach or a fitter who are no longer practicing.

Tri Tech Multisport in Columbus, OH went out of business earlier this summer. Their fitter, Leanne Charnas, also probably needs removed. Leanne was a co-owner of the store, and I got the impression from talking with her just before they closed that she and her husband were leaving the business altogether.

So the process is the store should email you? I can certainly contact the surviving cycling and running stores in our area and encourage them to contact you.

Dan,
Re: Austin, TX

Retailers - these are closed:
-Austin Bikes on 5th St.
-Vo2 Tri / Cycles
- Jack & Adams

Jack & Adams was sold to Bicycle World and now operates under that name at a store on S. Lamar Blvd.

I don't see any of the local Austin tris listed under the races, so here is a good start. This is the series that is run by Jack Murray (of old Jack & Adam's fame). His company now manages the Austin Marathon and other big local running events in addition to the local tris around Austin. http://texastriseries.com/

I will update more later

You'll want to add Orange Cycle in Orlando. Information follows below:

Specialized and Cannondale Bikes.
LG, Pearl Izumi, and Castelli apparel.
They have a fitter though I can't remember his name.

I have a tremendous number of local races to add. I'll work on a post tonight.

Edit: do you care about races at the moment?

Something weird is definitely going on with the results. When I first open the Map of Everything I see very few results, but when I navigate to, say, Running Stores, then back to the Map of Everything, I see, well, everything. Not sure what's causing the issue. Maybe browser compatibility? I'm using Chrome.

Same.

Once I got to the list of bike shops around Dallas....several Richardson Bike Mart Locations are missing, Cadence Cyclery (multiple locations) and Bikes Plus (Several Locations) are missing.

In trying to enter a local Tri Club, it has a host of "required" fields that make it difficult. For instance, the club I was trying to add uses FaceBook, so they have a url, but not email. But your form requires email. Also wants a complete address, which doesn't exist. I can understand why so few are listed.

I'm closer to the feathered end of the spear than the point.

Dan,

I am not sure what is going on with the Map - it likely is some kind of settings issue (I am using a work computer so maybe that is the problem? I will try this at home when I get a chance and update you.). I do see the menu with the various categories selected but nothing shows up on the Map itself.

I am sorry I cannot be more helpful.

It's highly likely that NY is trying to assess a tax of some sort for shops and races to be included on this map of everything.
