SUMMARY:January - EOM Ride Out
DESCRIPTION:On offer for your pleasure as the first End of Month ride of 2026\, courtesy of one of our Senior Instructors\, Jason White\, is a lovely Winter’s ride through beautiful Surrey and Sussex to Petworth. \n\n\n\nRIDE DETAILS\nSunday January 25th:  Pre-ride brief at 09:50;  Wheels up:  10:00am;  Finish by: 13:30-14:00pm \nMeeting Point Location:  ESSO Petrol Station\, 18 London Road (A24)\, Dorking\, RH4 1JA \nClosest Petrol Station:  Meeting Point \nPre-ride coffee/tea: Meeting Point \nLunch stop: Golden Square\, Petworth\, GU28 0AP \nRide Description \nDue to the time of year this has been designed as a leisurely\, but not too leisurely\, ride with plenty of chances to warm yourselves with a cuppa\, hence the later start and earlier finish. This EOM is perfect for those wishing to practice using the limit point to smooth out their ride using acceleration sense and those who are looking for some Roman roads to practice overtaking. You will be wise to only travel at a speed where you can stop safely on your side of the road in the distance you can see to be clear since during the recce Jason came across logging lorries\, horses\, tractor\, cyclists and walkers ! \nOutward Route: We will start off in Dorking at the 24hr garage and head south through the picturesque Leith Hill National Trust area and continue on open and flowing roads to Billingshurst where there will be a chance to reflect on your ride over a cup of tea at the Toat Cafe\, Stane St\, Pulborough RH20 1DN.\nAfter that we will continue south\, passing Storrington\, and on towards Bury Hill. We won’t stop there though but will continue west towards Eartham where we will strike north on Roman Roads. Arriving in Petworth we will have a quick tour of the one way system to get to the car park and find a cafe for a drink; Cherry’s Deli and Bakery has been recommended. \nDistance of ride and any stops: Total ride length – 84 miles \nReturn Route: Fully refreshed\, completely dry and bored of amazing roads with no traffic we will head north across the undulating Surrey roads through Morris dancer land and end up at Newlands Corner\, a popular biker meeting place. The cafe there has a wide range of food and is ideally located to end the ride being not far from the A25 and M25. \nIf return destination is different – Newland’s Corner\, Albury\, Guildford GU4 8SE \n  \n\n** New and Recent members – remember please you will need to have had your Initial Assessment Ride with an Instructor to attend this and any other club riding activities \n** All members please carry your membership card on this and all club activities \n\nREGISTRATION \nThere are no restrictions on how many can join the ride\, but we ask that you please register by emailing the ride leader.  See details below. \n\nWeather\nAs with all Group Ride Outs\, please note that if the overnight temperature is forecast to be 3C degrees or below at the ride start meeting place\, the ride out will be cancelled automatically.   There will not normally be a second notification if this is the case.  We only use the BBC Weather for our information.\n  \nBack-Marker System\nOne of the riders will need to Back-Mark so any volunteer for this please advise the ride leader when you register for the ride.  If you have an orange Hi-Viz please bring it with you\, or one may be provided on the day\, or dependant on the size of the group an alternative marker may be agreed. \nPlease make sure you are fully conversant with the rules of the “BACK-MARKER SYSTEM“.  Following these correctly is vital to the smooth running of the day and reduces the risk of losing someone or everyone.

Since the introduction of “the System” that dropped to one every 70\,000++ miles. \nThis is the first session of two.  Details for Part 2 can be viewed here  \nWelcome from 9am for a prompt start at 9:30am \nAgenda \n\nThe System\nRide Planning\n2025 Changes to Roadcraft\nBends and Positioning\n\n \nBends and Positioning – applying the system of motorcycle control.\nHow safely are you keeping away from likely hazards? How far ahead can you spot what’s going on? Positioning directly affects both. In week 1\, you’ll learn how to use your positioning to be more stable when cornering\, ride safer and see further ahead. You will also learn about ‘observation links’\, planning and other tricks of the trade. How stable is your bike when cornering? \n\n\n \nWe shall also have Helite visiting to demonstrate their latest vests. \n  \nLight Lunch and Refreshments are provided \n\nDon’t forget to attend Ride School Part 2 next month \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation\n9.00am – 4pm\nThe Haven Centre\nCrawley Down\nWest Sussex RH10 4LJ \n** Please book your place clearly stating Session 1\, 2 or both by registering with the membership secretary by emailing membership@southernriders.org \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n** All members to carry your membership card on club activities. **

SUMMARY:March - EOM Ride Out
DESCRIPTION:On offer for your pleasure this month\, courtesy of one of our instructors\, Steve Roys\, is a lovely ride through Kent and Sussex to lunch near Hurst Green. \n\n\n\nRIDE DETAILS \nSunday March 29th  –  Pre-ride briefing:  09:15;  Wheels up: 09:30.  \nMeeting Point Location:  McDonald’s Maresfield\, Uckfeld By-Pass A26/A272\, TN22 5EP (50.988854\, 0.090508) \nClosest Petrol Station:  At start point \nPre-ride coffee/tea:  At start point \nLunch stop: Planters Garden Centre\, A21\, just north of Hurst Green (fuel within 100 mtrs) \nRide Description \nThe route winds its way through about 140 miles of The High Weald national landscape across the East Sussex and Kent countryside. It covers A roads\, B Roads\, some back lanes and even a bit of Dual Carriageway. Something for everyone….. We will have a very short coffee/comfort/regroup stop in the morning before continuing to Planters Garden centre on the A21 for lunch at about 13:00. After lunch we head back East\, in a very round and about way\, to our starting point at Maresfield.  For those who  enjoyed Octobers ride\, this route is a slightly extended version that covers similar roads\, but with different stops\, and in a mix and match order. Several sections are done in the reverse direction. For those who have further to travel\, you are always welcome to head back home after lunch. If the clocks changing catches you out\,  or the loss of an hours sleep is too much to face….  you can also join us at Planters for the return run… please still register for the ride as I need to give the cafe an indication of numbers to ensure they don’t run out of sausage rolls! \n  \n\n** New and Recent members – remember please you will need to have had your Initial Assessment Ride with an Instructor to attend this and any other club riding activities \n** All members please carry your membership card on this and all club activities \n\nREGISTRATION \nThere are no restrictions on how many can join the ride\, but we ask that you please register by emailing the ride leader.  See details below. \n\nWeather\nAs with all Group Ride Outs\, please note that if the overnight temperature is forecast to be 3C degrees or below at the ride start meeting place\, the ride out will be cancelled automatically.   There will not normally be a second notification if this is the case.  We only use the BBC Weather for our information.\n  \nBack-Marker System\nOne of the riders will need to Back-Mark so any volunteer for this please advise the ride leader when you register for the ride.  If you have an orange Hi-Viz please bring it with you\, or one may be provided on the day\, or dependant on the size of the group an alternative marker may be agreed. \nPlease make sure you are fully conversant with the rules of the “BACK-MARKER SYSTEM“.  Following these correctly is vital to the smooth running of the day and reduces the risk of losing someone or everyone. Details of the BM system are on our Southernriders.org  website.   If you’re unsure on the day\, ask one of the attending Ride Leader. They will be more than happy to clarify any issues you have. \nHi-Viz\nIf you wear hi-viz\, please ensure it is not Orange as this is reserved for the ‘back-marker’ during our ride-outs.  We appreciate you may normally wear an orange hi-viz whilst riding. However\, some find 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 is to wear orange hi-viz.   Thank you \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:May - EOM Ride Out
DESCRIPTION:Currently a work in progress\, details to follow. \n\n\n\nRIDE DETAILS \nThe route is currently a work in progress\, details to follow. \n  \n\n** New and Recent members – remember please you will need to have had your Initial Assessment Ride with an Instructor to attend this and any other club riding activities \n** All members please carry your membership card on this and all club activities \n\nREGISTRATION \nThere are no restrictions on how many can join the ride\, but we ask that you please register by emailing the ride leader.  See details below. \n\nWeather\nAs with all Group Ride Outs\, please note that if the overnight temperature is forecast to be 3C degrees or below at the ride start meeting place\, the ride out will be cancelled automatically.   There will not normally be a second notification if this is the case.  We only use the BBC Weather for our information.\n  \nBack-Marker System\nOne of the riders will need to Back-Mark so any volunteer for this please advise the ride leader when you register for the ride.  If you have an orange Hi-Viz please bring it with you\, or one may be provided on the day\, or dependant on the size of the group an alternative marker may be agreed. \nPlease make sure you are fully conversant with the rules of the “BACK-MARKER SYSTEM“.  Following these correctly is vital to the smooth running of the day and reduces the risk of losing someone or everyone. Details of the BM system are on our Southernriders.org  website.   If you’re unsure on the day\, ask one of the attending Ride Leader. They will be more than happy to clarify any issues you have. \nHi-Viz\nIf you wear hi-viz\, please ensure it is not Orange as this is reserved for the ‘back-marker’ during our ride-outs.  We appreciate you may normally wear an orange hi-viz whilst riding. However\, some find 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 is to wear orange hi-viz.   Thank you \n\n
