Rules for Rides. Happy rides, not grumpy races.

We're not big on rules but we do insist on the following...

  • No Helmet, no ride.
  • Buy a watch. Ride (dis)organisers can wait an hour, 30 people can't and won't wait 15 minutes. We meet on the hour, hang around for 10 minutes then take off. Don't bother phoning, send a text. The ride (dis)organiser will read it at the first rendezvous point and then will call you back. Please don't mock those who are constantly late, it's now recognised as a debilitating disease called Alan Yeates Syndrome.
  • Don't turn up naked, bring things; inner tubes, puncture repair kits, multitools. You know...stuff!
  • No one gets left behind. You'll be well informed way in advance what kind of ride it'll be and the skill level required. Whether doing The Cheese or Hot Chilli we're going for a RIDE not a RACE.
  • Don't poo in the car. Bad weather? Getting a lift? Bring stuff to cover yourself/your lift so it doesn't look like you had a poo in their car.
  • Don't bring a dead bike, punctures are inevitable but jammed headsets, pedals falling off, sh@gged drivetrains will result in you buying the beers... Also known as The Matt Rogers Rule.
