Just a few lines of info for sunday if your coming regardless of if your names on the list. I will be aiming for the 8.30 depart as close as i can,once ive run through the cornerman system for those who dont know or have forgot, and there will be jus just a few instructions about certain points of the ride the weather for our destination is pretty similar to what we have had over the last few days the weather for cambridge is on the pic thats our half way point and its looking good as the day rolls on the temp will rise so dont be put off.
The pace wont be fast as i dont want people sitting too long at junctions waiting about but it wont be slow eitherremember you can race back to the front when the tail marker comes if you get marker duties, the second part of the route doesnt really have that many marker points so it should be a smooth ride to our destination I will do a fuel and rest stop and a re group but i will explain that in the morning before we leave the ace…
Now the fuel stop will be some way into the ride so please dont turn up the at the ace at 8.15 with half a tank of fuel expecting a cup of tea and a bacon roll because you wont have time to eat it and fill up.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A FULL TANKbefore we leave thats all i ask!! if you dont you will have to play catch up there will be nocorner markersdropped on the north circular the only marker i will drop will be the A10 junction.
see you Sunday and wrap up warm ride your own ride and enjoy it:D
just to add can the people meeting me at redbridge also make sure you have fuelled up before you get to redbridge, WE WILL BE LEAVING AT 8.30am
likewise the few i have spoke to that are meeting us on route [ you know who you are ] can you also make sure you all have a full tank before meeting us.
Oh aye, and if you’re playing catch up after being a corner-marker, please overtake sensibly. I’ve seen some hella dodgy manouevres on big rides and it can scare seasoned riders, nevermind newer ones.
So folks, it’s observation-signal-manouvre, not manouvre-token shoulder check-wahay! (before anyone says it, I fall into the second category quite a lot, but I’m tail gunner so I don’t have to worry about overtaking anything :P)
Will go over everything at the ace our tail marker is meeting us on the A10 with a few others Westie on the orange triumph will be the back marker on the way to the A10 once keti sees westie she will join the back Keti rides a green zx6 03 plate if you dont know.
But will run through everything at the ace as i dont want no **** ups see you all tomorrow morning:D
yes look forward to seeing you in the morning, i will be your tailgunner from the ACE CAFE, NO LATE PEEPS PLEASE AS WE WILL BE LEAVING THE ACE 8.30AM SHARP!
Damn, my rear sprocket is shagged after the last trackday at Brands. If anyone has a spare 525 pitch rear sprocket, can they bring it along tomorrow please?
Woke up at 7.30am and wondered if I could get from Dagenham to the Ace in time and then decided that no, my bed was warm and toasty and FH would kill me. Hope you had a great ride out… lets hear all about it
:ermm:
