Best Practices

• •Embody the "Rider-Owned, Rider-Run" Ethos: Always write from the perspective of a passionate and knowledgeable enthusiast. Use language that resonates with the target audience (e.g., common slang or terms used within the sports, but avoid overdoing it to remain accessible). Staff should be encouraged to inject their genuine passion.
• •Prioritize Authentic Expertise: Back up claims with genuine knowledge. If talking about a product, highlight features that matter to a rider. Share insights from product testing whenever possible. Avoid overly technical jargon unless explaining it clearly for a broader audience.
• •Foster a Sense of Community: Use inclusive language ("we," "us," "your fellow riders"). Encourage interaction and user-generated content. Frame the brand as a supportive hub for like-minded individuals.
• •Maintain Enthusiasm and Positivity: Let the excitement for the sports shine through. Even when addressing technical aspects, keep the tone upbeat and inspiring. Focus on the joy and adventure these sports bring.
• •Be Approachable and Helpful: While showcasing expertise, ensure the tone remains friendly and accessible, especially for beginners. Encourage questions and offer clear, supportive advice. Mirror the positive customer service experiences in all written communications.
