    I'm fine in the wet. My reservation is about being wet. I can't be fucked 'actively' going out to get wet when I have no reason to. Does that make sense?

    is that as a protective barrier for when you come up behind him? Why do you make it so hard for yourself? Do you enjoy the challenge?

    where opinion holds more weight than fact.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    Na this time I was being serious. Life's to bloody busy atm ........ got no time for much banter....

    Traditionally the Thu night rides have been "open paced" and some of the younger fellas have tried to play catch the 600 or 1000's.

    I don't want ANY kb'er binning it. After seeing pics of his wounds in the Pizza night thread I hoped he had done what needed doing.



    look at the time........



    got to run........ :spudwave:

    Don't worry, I'll be going, so you can come and walk infront of me until we catch up with them at the pub.

    My point exactly.

    I have a couple of reasons for being discrimative for this weeks ride:

    1. As stated in my first post on this thread

    - There is only 1 of me, (thankgod for that) unless you wannna give me a hand every now and then I cant keep a huge group together and direct it at the same time. (Even tho there is a small group who have been my saviours) If you think there shouldnt be so many intersections/turnoffs/deviations then maybe we should all go on the motorway?!

    2. As in my point above in #1, if you give the group instructions, nobody listens. I gave the basic instruction 'Go straight through at an intersection unless there is someone to direct you' (which is only me remember....)when I was the last through to the intersection (where everyone should of stopped to regroup) nobody was there.

    3. Im not trying to sound anul here but this ride was intended for a blat after work. My concerns are that the newbies (even tho they were invited) were starting to turn up in their numbers. I dont mind 2 or 3 but when there are nearly as many newbs as there are standard riders...... well you get the picture. A very slow ride.

    I just dont want to be known as the member 'who organises rides with bins'

    My 10cents worth. Let the shit flinging / constructive dicussion begin!
