I think I could be up for this (pending a pass off the missus of course)...I will post back with a definate yes or no.

If yes, i will propably bring along Beefcake on his SV1000.

Does that sound ok?

Sounds good, I may well be interested.

But I'll need to check my diary (the wife) before definately committing.

Cheers

Just to clear this up.

I will be the back marker, the purpose of which on a rideout like this, is to round up the people that maybe lost etc, and to make them part of the rideout when the faster riders all bugger off (Yes it does happen) It also means that when the front riders stop, they know who the last person is, so that they dont leave anyone behind. On the last rideout, we had Coolgirl in the car!!! I have no issues with being at the back, as i want everyone to have a good ssafe ride, and it always upsets me when we loose people. The people at the back, so to speak, in front of me, can ride however they want.

However, if people follow the 'no one in your mirrors at junctions, then wait rule' this shouldnt be to much of a problem. This although may be a bit tediuos, works very very well, and can make or break a rideout. I know that sometimes it can mean waiting around for another marker to appear, but then you can play catch up, which is fun

On all rideouts (For thoses that havent been on many) you ride at your own pace. They are not a race to the end, you are not required to keep up with the one in front etc, they are a group of likeminded riders that just want to go for a ride and as a whole, are very enjoyable.

Now, Jake has set this ride up and its his 1st time running a .org rideout, and the best of luck to him. Now no more squabbling about whos at the back ok

I don't mind being at the back either, or working as a shephard, I have lived in the area for 20 years so I know nearly all of kent, Remember the 1st Selkent rideout to Rye, were they really roads

.
My bike has got to stay below 4,000 revs anyway,

so I won't be hacking it along!!!!
and I can take pillions

Just to confirm, Viney is backmarker, SexySi if you want to shephard you're welcome to. Everyone take the 'rider in your mirrors at junctions' approach, if there's no-one there then wait for them. If this means holding up other vehicles, move to a safer place. Cheers!

How many miles you done? I expect you'll be fine for bringing the revs up a bit by now.

rictus01 · 22-03-06, 12:13 PM

also a tank "bullet point type" guide for those that want it.
