Please note: During the winter rides season a decision will be made by 8.00am on the day of the ride as to whether the ride will proceed. The decision to postpone/cancel a ride will be published on Slack within the Group Rides section (For clarity, no announcement means the ride is going ahead as published).

We will make every effort to broadcast the news as widely as possible but Slack should be your ‘go to’ reference point and it is your responsibility to check the status of every ride before attending.

You can join Slack, our members only channel, here: https://join.slack.com/t/plymouthadvan-hvo1178/shared_invite/zt-lblor74l-8FqDREVw9wPE~gMgky~8Gg

The ride will be conducted in accordance with the IAM’s Group Organised Rides manual. The ride is open to all members. Associates are particularly encouraged to attend as these rides provide a great opportunity to meet fellow members and practice your skills amongst like-minded individuals. This is a social event and not an observed ride.

You are reminded that the ride leader is responsible for navigation and route guidance only. It remains your personal responsibility to exercise your own judgement about every course of action that you take, and every rider is responsible for their own actions and the consequences that those actions may have.

We look forward to seeing you on Sunday!

The PAM Team.
