Terms of Service

What Spoke & Circle is

Spoke & Circle is a directory: it lets riders search for cycling teams, clubs, and group rides, and lets those groups submit listings so riders can find them. We don’t organize, host, lead, or supervise any ride, event, or group listed on the site, and we are not a party to any relationship between you and a group you contact or join through the site.

Accounts

Some actions, like submitting or managing a listing, may require signing in. You’re responsible for maintaining access to your account and for anything that happens under it. Accounts may be disabled for violating these Terms.

Submitting a listing

• You must have the authority to submit information about a team, club, or group ride, and the information must be accurate and not misleading.
• Submissions are reviewed before they appear publicly, and we may approve, reject, edit for clarity or formatting, or remove any listing at our discretion, for example if it’s spam, inaccurate, abusive, or violates these Terms.
• By submitting a listing, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display that content on the site for as long as the listing is active.
• You may request that your listing be corrected or removed by emailing support@spokeandcircle.com.

Prohibited conduct

You agree not to:

• Submit false, misleading, or spam listings, or submit a listing for a group you don’t have the authority to represent.
• Scrape, crawl, or use automated means to access the site beyond normal, reasonable use, or attempt to bypass rate limits or other technical protections.
• Use the site to harass, impersonate, or misrepresent yourself or others.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to accounts or data.

Third-party groups and rides

Spoke & Circle is a directory only. We review submissions for basic accuracy and formatting, but we don’t vet, endorse, or guarantee the accuracy of any listing, and we have no control over how a listed group operates. Riding a bike, and group cycling in particular, carries inherent risk. Any decision to contact, join, or ride with a group you find through the site is your own, and you do so at your own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any injury, loss, dispute, or damage arising from your interactions with a listed group or participation in a listed ride or event.

Disclaimer of warranties

The site is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We don’t guarantee that listings are accurate, complete, or current, or that the site will be uninterrupted or error-free.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Spoke & Circle and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site.

Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access, or remove a listing, at any time for conduct that violates these Terms or that we believe is harmful to the site or other users.

Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we’ll update the effective date above. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
