Trouble logging in to the site? Questions about payment?

here's some quick help answers

We’re thrilled you are taking the time to check out HBL.org & all the great resources HBL has compiled for you. While most of the excellent, informative, and helpful content – such as the Hawai‘i Bike Laws, group ride calendar, upcoming events, advocacy alerts & initiatives – is perusable for everyone, we’re excited to have special features built in just for current HBL members to access like curated routes, member discounts, and more.

We’ve been listening, and are sharing the answers to some common questions from people using this site. If your question/issue is not answered below, please give us a call or shoot us an email & we’re happy to help.

Signing in

As a dues-paying, current member with the Hawaii Bicycling League, you get all the HBL member perks that come with it. Have a current membership with HBL? Make sure to sign-in FIRST to the HBL.org site to get those discounts automatically applied to your ride registration or merch purchase!

On DESKTOP Computer: Look to the top right corner & hit “Sign In”.

On MOBILE Device: Hit the ☰ (three horizontal lines) in the top right corner to bring down the Menu. Select “Member Login”.

Your Username is your email. The unique email address your HBL member account is set up with is linked to your individual HBL membership.

No. Unfortunately you cannot modify your Username. To set up your HBL member account using a different email, we recommend you wait till your current membership expires & then create a new account (with the email of your choice) when you renew your membership.

We totally get that some people might have a joint email they share with their partner, child, etc., but since the membership system requires a unique identifier to be able to recognize members & give them their proper benefits we ask that you sign up individually, using your own individual email.

Please call HBL at (808) 735-5756 during office hours and we’re happy to help.

MEMBERSHIP RENEWAL

After you login to this site (using the password you created & your email), you can view your membership status in your personal Member Dashboard. It will either say your membership is ACTIVE, meaning your membership is still up to date – hooray!, or INACTIVE, which means you are not a current dues-paying member.

Yes, you can login using the email associated with your HBL Member account to check the status of your HBL membership. If it’s ACTIVE, you’ll be able to access all the perks of being a member in the site! But if you login and find your membership is listed as INACTIVE, you won’t be able to get the benefits of being a current HBL Member…

Of course that is, until you renew!  🙂

If you are logged into the HBL.org site, you’ll see “Log Out in the Navigation bar in the top right corner. Hover your cursor over that & the Member Dashboard option will dropdown for you to click!

If you are NOT logged in to the site it will say “Member Sign-In” in the top right corner instead. (Scroll to the top of this page for How-To sign in.)

If you check on your Membership Information through your membership portal and see that your membership listed as “Classic HBL Membership”, you’re not seeing things! In moving to the new website & membership platform with updated membership plans so we had to import all former membership levels as “Classic” to get them into the system.

“Classic” Memberships are not a member category one can select (currently, or essentially ever). You can choose any of the HBL membership plans currently offered when renewing your membership! (We promise they’re all good!)

If your membership is “INACTIVE” that means your membership has expired! But no worries, we’ve made it real easy to get back on board: just click the blue “MY MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION” button directly below that. Then select the Level you would like to renew at, fill out your billing info, & click the button at the bottom that says “Start Your Membership!“. That will get your membership back in good standing right away!

You can also renew your membership at any time by clicking JOIN in the navigation bar on the top and following the same process as above.

Yes! If you choose to renew your membership before your membership expiration date, the system will add an additional year on to whenever your membership was set to expire. Good on you for being ahead of the game!

Example: If my HBL membership expires 2/22/2022, but I choose to pay my membership dues in advance of that date, on 1/11/2022, your new membership expiration date will be 2/22/2023. 

Shoot! If you successfully renewed your membership with us online, that shouldn’t happen. If it does, please email Membership@HBL.org & we will look into seeing what’s going on and resolving it right away!

If you know the person’s login credentials (the email associated with HBL.org and their password), you could pay for their membership online. But we don’t recommend sharing your personal login information with others.
