Default Offers to be Tail-end Charlie!

Anyone willing to be a T-E-C for the rideup?

Jambo has offered (Cheers mate) but if anyone thinks they would be more suitable just ask!

I'll have a full route plan/road names and numbers etc to give to the winner(?) on the morning at the Ace. I could email it if you want to have it earlier.

Cheers.

Well I am usually happiest at the back, although it is a habit I am trying to break.

I also have a Hi-Vis vest (if the position requires).

Go on then, I'll do it if I am suitable :P

Whoever is chosen, please do not offer to be at the back if you're of the opinion that you are slow, the right person to be at the back is someone who is experienced and with a turn of speed if needed. Not somebody slow like me.

PS As mentioned above, taking turns is a good idea as long as everyone is quite sure who is the back marker at every change.

I guess I should withdraw my offer then.

Slow's fine, lets just not stop anywhere without a wall eh?

As mentioned, more than happy to take a shift or do the run as T-E-C
