Revised Safety Notice For Rideouts

[slob]

I've just updated this on the new forum and added a description of the 'drop-off' system, I'm posting it here so it's easy to find once you've dismissed the pop-up.

PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION WHEN ATTENDING A MONSTER MEET/RIDEOUT​

1. All riders ride at their OWN risk.
2. The UKMOC will not be held liable for any accidents to riders/passengers/motorcycles whatsoever.
3. You are deemed to be in control of your own motor cycle at all times
4. Please let the ride leader know, if you are intending to 'peel off' en-route.

ADVICE FOR THOSE LEADING RIDEOUTS​

1. Make yourself known to all persons who intend to rideout with you.
2. We recommend the 'Drop-Off' system for group rides.
3. Find out if everyone has ridden in a group before - if not explain any relevant info.
4. Ensure all have enough fuel - and locate nearest garages to the meet point.
5. Ask everybody to ride slightly 'off-set' - eg - do not directly follow the bike in front WHERE POSSIBLE. (this leaves extra braking room).
6. HAVE FUN!

Thanks again for updating and posting this Rob.

Please note that if you click on the blue wording "Drop-Off System" it will take you to an explanation of how this works.
It's an excellent system for any length of ride with any number of riders above 3.
It worked a treat when a large group of us rode from Ness Point, Lowestoft, to Land's End some years ago.
They were the days..
