The August EOM ride is going to be lead by the very experienced Robin Brown. He has chosen a great route so a good day should be had by all. See the details below :
Heading for Goodwood Airfield (Newly Opened Cafe )
Leaving Rykas the route will be via Ranmore Common, Ewhurst and Loxwood heading towards Petworth using secondary roads for the most part, and subject to weather conditions will include single track.
Aiming to leave Goodwood around 1330 for McD on A272/A34 junction, via Bignor and Fittleworth. End of ride will be at McD by 1600 latest(maybe!!)
Volunteers for back marking if possible with orange High Viz please.
BackMarker System: Please make sure you are fully conversant with the rules of the “BACKMARKER SYSTEM“. Following these correctly is vital to the smooth running of the day & reduces the risk of losing someone, or everyone. Details of the BM system are on our RoSPASMART website. If you’re unsure on the day, ask one of the attending Instructors. They will be more than happy to clarify any issues you have.
Hi-Viz: If you wear hi-viz, please ensure it is not Orange as this is reserved for the ‘backmarker’ during our ride-outs. We appreciate you may normally wear an orange hi viz whilst riding. However, feedback identified that some found it confusing when in the middle of the group to see two or more riders with the orange hi viz. So, in an effort to avoid confusion and markers leaving their post prematurely only the back-marker to wear orange. Thank you
Please be fully fuelled and ready to go prior to the start of the day.
Have a safe enjoyable day
Ride Smart – Ride Safe !
