SUMMARY:March25 Month End Rideout
DESCRIPTION:Full members month end group rideout. \nMeet Location : McDonald’s\, London Road\, Thurlaston\, CV23 9LG \nMeet Time: 0900 \nBrief: 0915 no brief\, no ride \nRide Leader – Jim Herbert \nTail End Charlie – TBC on the day \nThis month we are heading out on a circular route starting and ending at McDonald’s of 115 miles towards Oakham. \n\n\n	Who's coming?\n\n	7 people are attending February26 Month End Rideout \n	\n		Martin Ward\n	\n		Jason Byrne\n	\n		Craig Duggan\n	\n		Paul Maddock\n	\n		Simon Broom\n	\n\nPLEASE READ BELOW \nAttendance of the ride out confirms you have read and understood the ride rules and confirm that your motorcycle has valid insurance\, tax and MOT (if required) and if it is a full members month end ride you have a valid RoSPA Test Pass (at Bronze\, Silver or Gold) with an active RoSPA membership. \nRIDE RULES: \n\nPlease arrive with a full tank of fuel\nBike must be roadworthy and legal\nWear or carry appropriate clothing for the ride\nEnsure you have the mobile number for the ride-leader\nNo deliberate backing-off within the group\nNo overtaking within the group\nObserve the rules of the Highway Code\nAlways ride within your own capabilities\, do not ride outside your own limits\nAll riders are responsible for their own vehicle should a breakdown occur\, cover is recommended\nAttend the pre-ride brief held by the ride leader\n\n ————————————————————————————— \nRIDE ETIQUETTE: \nTake responsibility for the rider behind you\, prior to moving off familiarise yourself with the following rider and the rider ahead of you. You’re responsible for making sure they don’t get lost and break up the ride. When making a change of direction and the following rider is out of sight\, wait and mark the direction change (stop in a safe location where you can be seen) until they arrive. When safe\, move off briskly allowing the following rider to take up your position marking the direction change. \nDo not ride slower where there is no turn-off to allow the rider behind to catch up\, this usually has the opposite effect and elongates the group. \nLook for safe and legal overtaking opportunities. While there is no overtaking within the group\, it is beneficial to make progress and safely overtake other road users to maintain the flow of the ride. Blindly overtaking or blindly following the bike in front is not expected from an advanced rider. Anticipating\, preparing\, and then executing overtakes safely without delay or loss of available overtaking distance should be the norm for RoSPA advanced riders. \nOn open rides Associates should only overtake if they feel comfortable about attempting the manoeuvre. \nDouble up at junctions. On final approach and whilst waiting at junctions all riders should aim to queue two-abreast and to make room for others to do this by their own positioning. The person you pull up next to must always move off first. Riders not at the front of the queue are expected to be watching the traffic so as they can move off with the rider in front of them if there is sufficient gap in the traffic. \nStaggered position This enables the following distance to be closed-up safely whilst still providing a good view and stopping distance to other riders. This is expected at lower speeds and in urban areas but is obviously sacrificed if it presents insufficient margin to nearside or off-side hazards.

On final approach and whilst waiting at junctions all riders should aim to queue two-abreast and to make room for others to do this by their own positioning. The person you pull up next to must always move off first. Riders not at the front of the queue are expected to be watching the traffic so as they can move off with the rider in front of them if there is sufficient gap in the traffic. \nStaggered position This enables the following distance to be closed-up safely whilst still providing a good view and stopping distance to other riders. This is expected at lower speeds and in urban areas but is obviously sacrificed if it presents insufficient margin to nearside or off-side hazards.
