eastern riders Sunday Rideouts

We will try to get in all day rides once or twice a month, to be agreed at the previous monthly meeting. Post any suggested routes in the forum. Between us surely we can come up with 6/8 all day routes which are enough for the season?

Our season is April to October, but if the weather is good other times then let other members know what you are up to and see if anyone else wants to join in!

For the all-day rides to places of interest, look on Events & Trips

Let others know you will be riding on the Sunday by using the relevant post on the forum so others will know whether or not to turn up! Also, if you are new and inexperienced we can make provision for you.

	All rides will leave from Thickthorn Services at 9.00 am on Sundays, unless otherwise stated

Progress during group rides is purely up to the individual rider. Groups will normally be of 3-5 people, ideally of a similar riding pace and skill. If some members of that group wish to ride at a faster pace than others then, providing that they stop to re-group at each road change, we can ensure that no-one feels under pressure to ride faster than their abilities permit.

If we turn off the road we are on, say at junctions, we will (or the last rider will at least) wait until they are sure the rider behind them has seen the turn off.

If any member of that group does not catch up with the group in a few minutes, at least one member will ride back to find that person.

Please inform the rest of the group if you are exiting the route at a certain place (e.g. to go home) so as not to cause the rest of the group any undue concern. Over taking of other riders, either within the group or other groups, is acceptable where necessary, provided it is carried out with courtesy and safety in mind.
