For I.A.M. Insurance reasons this Ride Out is for full members and Associates. This is also a great opportunity for non members wishing to join WAM. They are permitted one Official Group Organised ride out per year following an initial assessment, provided they are considering joining the IAM group to complete the Skills For Life Course! Anyone requiring to be Observed please bring it to the attention of one of the ride out team on the day.

If numbers are large we may have to have more than one group in which case there will be one further group with a leader and sweeper.
If it snows heavily the ride maybe cancelled, other than that the weather will not stop this thoroughly good day out.

Ride pace: Relaxing, gentle and progressive covering a reasonable mileage.

Appendix: TL=Turn Left. TR=Turn Right. J/W= junction with.
Sweeper = Person riding at the rear who will have an enormous amount of patience, knows where we are going, and will look after the rear of the group!
