The DOC has a range of Focus Groups that you can join in order to correspond with other members with similar bikes and interests to yourself. You can be a member of as many as you like, and join or leave whenever it pleases you. Each Focus Group has an organiser, who's reponsibility it is to channel all the news and correspondence from the group members to your own section of the website, within the "Memberzone". Once signed up, you can contribute or learn yourself. There is no charge for this service. Simply e-mail the organiser, and ask to be added to the group. If you cannot find a group that is a perfect fit, try one that is pretty close, or email the webmaster@docgb.org for help in setting one up.
