Rioting Rob rides to Rye and beyond "Part 2" (Ride-Out 26-2-12)

Hello mate, how you doing?, We should be back at Oakdene between 4 & 5pm and no to your second question;), this ride is suited to regular riders and is moderately paced.:slight_smile:

Mr Kong, please read up on the cornerman system and arrive ready to ride. Welcome to LB and i hope you enjoy the first of many rides with LB.:cool:

Thank you :slight_smile:

Two more questions, if you will, please:

  1. I think I understand the cornerman rule - but how will I know if I am a cornerman or not on the day?

  2. Is the meeting at the tea hut at 0920hrs or 0820hrs? Got a little confused by your initial post and a subsequent pose submitted by another user.

:slight_smile:

Hmmmmm there is a maybe in here somewhere!! :slight_smile:

I’ll be at Blackheath at 9am,:smiley: we’ll leave and head for oakdene at 9.20am,:wink: The start point is 10am opposite the oakdene cafe on the A20.

So what i’m saying is anyone nearer to Blackheath can meet me there, if you think your nearer to Oakdene then meet there for 10am start.:cool:

BOOBIES!!! :smiley:

KingKong: You are the cornerman if you’re the first rider behind Rob leading on. When he points out a spot, you mark it.
Everyone passes you then until the last person comes who signals you that all are through and you to go.

The first person who has passed you when you’ve marked the corner is the next cornerman at the next corner, and so on and so on. So in the end everyone apart from the last person marks a corner, and in normal circumstances the leading rider, Rob in this case, should not mark a corner either (this only happens if the 2nd person is out of sight)

Mr Kong, if you find yourself behind me at any time on the ride then it’s more than likely you’ll be a cornerman, I’ll point to a place at a junction, exit off a rounderbout or any safe spot for you to stop and mark it, when and only when you see the tailgunner approach behind you, then you may continue with the ride, simples.

The tailgunner will be identified before the ride.

Thank you Mr Smitty:D

Oh so it’s 9am now from teahut!

Little more do-able for me :smiley:

If you come i will give you a private showing behind the trees at the hut :wink:

Thanks all,

Makes me a little nervous being a cornerman but I will give it my best :wink:

I hope to meet you at the tea hut at 0900hrs (if I don’t oversleep as will be celebrating my 30th the night before) as it’s closer to me than the ride out point; plus I wouldn’t find it as well without following you there :slight_smile:

Oops, missed this:w00t:

Would have made my day getting a text from you at 8am on a Sunday morning saying where are you:laugh::laugh::smiley:

Lucky chap. :slight_smile:

I’m more of a sharing caring type. Why not show all of us?:smiley:

uuurrrmmmm shall I tailgun Rob? :wink:

You sure you’ll be alright back there:D

It was bad enough having Rob behind me last time, I don’t think mo is much of an improvement :wink:

Oh my giddy aunt, I can see the comments already:laugh::laugh::smiley:

I think that should go in NumNum’s thread of out of context quotes… :smiley:
