Sue

It’s been a brilliant month for me, starting from last month’s club night. I was completely taken aback when Don announced that I had earned an ‘Appreciation’ award for the work I’d done as editor. Thank you so much! Then, at the Blazin’ Blazers Rally, my trike won the ‘Best of the Rest’ trophy in the ride-in show! The public put money in the bucket by the motorcycle they liked the best and mine had the most! How cool is that? Second year running it’s won the same award. We got a medal, too, this time. Don’t forget to give your mileage to Don at the end of the month, and your ‘Miles of Fun’ cards to Nick. And, the last Poker Run is on 22nd of this month… Enjoy the last of the good riding weather and take care out there!

Hi Everybody... ...and welcome to the October edition of Tales from the Riverbank.

After such a busy August, September and October have not been that

different so far this month. A group of our members have been down

to Blazing Blazers in Weymouth

for the last Rally of the season.

From the pictures on Face Book

it looks like a great time was had

by all that attended this year.

Two members brought back

trophies from the ride-in bike

show, Sue Knight for Best of the

Rest & Ray Shepherd for Best

Tourer.

Well done to both of you.

On Saturday October 4th thirteen of

us left Sportsable for Thames Valley’s

Ride to the Wall. Not a bad turnout as

the weather forecast was not looking

very good for most of the day.

Clive, our lead Road Captain for the

day, had decided that the motorway route was our best option as we

were certainly going to get wet on the way up to the Arboretum.

It didn’t take long to get soaked - between Cherwell and Warwick we

had a taster, which got worse as the ride went on. This carried on ’til

early afternoon. Just before the service started at the foot of the wall

somebody upstairs waved His wand and the weather changed to a

beautiful afternoon, which stayed like that for the rest of the day and

evening. An estimated 3000 + bikes attended the ride this year from

all over England & Europe. Earlier this year, Martin Dickinson, the

founder of Ride to the Wall, and the committee, handed over a cheque

to the National Memorial Arboretum for £82,750 from the 2013 ride,

which will go towards the upkeep of the Arboretum.

5

Following the service, many wreaths

were laid on behalf of Hog Chapters &

Motor Cycle clubs from around the

country.

Frank Mirtle & Diane Early asked to lay

Thames Valley’s wreath.

The Royal Marines are celebrating their

350th anniversary this year and after serving 29 years, Frank thought it would

be appropriate to ask to lay the wreath.

SofER

A couple of weeks ago it was announced to all the

5 organising Chapters at the same time, that

The South of England Rally had been booked at the

world famous Hickstead Show Jumping grounds,

just south of Crawley in West Sussex, for 2015.

The Rally will open on August 14th and close Sunday lunchtime with a whole

new set up including many new attractions and a few of the old favourites.

We have no accommodation on site at Hickstead other than camping. There

will be a Yippee Yurt Village erected on site, which will be available to book

through the SofER website very soon. The nearest hotels are a Travelodge, which is a 10min walk from the main gate (½ mile), and a Premier Inn in

Burgess Hill (3½ miles). Mini-buses will be available to both these locations

and more.

I would suggest booking sooner rather than later if you are the non-camping

type. www.travelodge.co.uk & www.prenierinns.com

I should have Thames Valley’s allocation of tickets for the Rally at

November’s club night. The tickets are being sold for £40, inc VAT, for what

looks like being a great weekend for bands and entrainment.

Mileage Program &Miles of Fun

Only a couple of weeks left to clock up those miles for the Chapter Challenge

Mileage Program. All mileages need to be returned to me as soon after 31st

October as you can get them to me, so I can get them signed off and sent to

the Hog co-ordinator.

After suffering being reminded from our Ladies of Harley Rep for the last

couple of years, that she had ridden more miles than the Director, I am

determined to put that right this year - I hope!!

Miles of Fun cards need to be returned to Nick at the end of October for him

to sort out the winners for this year’s prizes.

Committee

Applications to join the committee for 2015

are still available up to the end of this

month. All committee positions are available

to be applied for and will be considered for

2015. We do have some of our committee

members who will standing down from their

posts at the end of this year, including the

Ladies of Harley rep, the Poker Run

co-ordinator & Membership Officer.

If you would like to join the committee or organise the Poker Runs and be a

part of a growing Hog Chapter, please put pen to paper and apply for a

position, or at least come and talk to Pat or myself.

Events

Our Christmas Party, arranged for December

13th at the Calcot Hotel in Reading, is now

fully booked with 40 Guests attending.

Final payments are required by club night,

tonight, paid to

Pat & Barry, to

secure your places

at the table.

The Christmas Hamper, for the December club

night draw, has been ordered and our ladies will

be selling raffle tickets for the hamper during October, November and

December club nights.

The 2015 Winter Bash is now booked at Sportsable for February 14th which

is, of course, Valentines Night! The theme for the evening is

Black Tie & Posh Frocks. A buffet supper will be served during

the evening with music by Robbie. Tickets available soon.

Looking forward to 2015, our committee is starting to put the calendar

together for rides and events. The first rally of the season is The Cider

Rally held over the May bank holiday weekend. I hope everybody has

booked, because the accommodation has been selling fast.

COULD THIS BE YOU?

We have a Suggestion Box at club night for your suggestions

and ideas for Rallies & Events that you would like to visit

during 2015. We would love some input from you, our

members. This is your club and we would like to arrange a

ride for you.

Just a little bit of Hot News about Reading Harley -

Davidson, gathered at the launch night for the 2015

bikes…

Contracts for the building work have been signed

and demolition is due start and be completed by

Christmas. Building work is to start soon after.

Great News.

That’s it from me for another month,

Ride safe and have fun.

Don

The SofER Chapters are delighted to confirm that the eleventh South of England Rally will take place on 14 -16 August 2015 at their great new venue - Hickstead, the home of International Show Jumping in the UK.

Sue says... I am just sitting down to write

this month’s article after returning

from an excellent lunch at the

Jolly Woodman in Burnham. Thanks to Toni for arranging this

month’s Saturday Social, and to Fred for recommending the venue.

It was well very well attended and I will certainly be going there

again. Thank you Linda for bringing along a copy of Berkshire Life,

I hope the magazine and link that was shared on the TVHoG page

has raised the profile of Thames Valley Ladies of Harley locally.

Well, Autumn has finally caught up with us and memories of the

summer holidays are beginning to fade into the background. We’ve

had a fabulous riding season this year and l hope the winter is kind

to us, too.

One holiday memory that will always stay with me, however,

comes from our recent road trip around Europe (which you can

read a bit more about in Paul’s article, p16). We travelled through

7 countries and rode 100’s of hairpin bends, so I had already had

lots of practice but was still feeling rather intrepid about riding

the Stelvio Pass. The ride started in brilliant sunshine and as we

started up the mountain I couldn’t envisage the extent of the

twisty roads that lay ahead . I have seen the pictures but nothing

could quite prepare me for that awesome sight.

8

Turn after turn after turn of steep twisty mountain roads. We

were being buzzed by sports bikes all demonstrating their ability to

whip round the bends faster than us, until one came unstuck and

tipped over on an especially tight uphill turn. He wasn’t hurt (well,

maybe just his pride) and we all rode past with a ‘we are better than

you are’ grin our faces! Then there were the coaches - well

fancy taking a coach up and down those roads! Fair play to the coach

drivers but they were a bit of a hazard. I reached halfway and my

hands were starting to chill, but there was no stopping. I looked up

and saw at least another 40 turns and thought ‘sod the hands girl,

just keep concentrating on keeping the bike on the road!’

The previous day’s snow was still edging the roadside, my fingers

were starting to numb but we were all elated on reaching the summit,

then would you believe it? It started raining! So, wets on and then

down the other side we came. If it had been raining when we

started the journey I would never have attempted the climb in the

first place.

The Stelvio was the most challenging ride of my life (that’s if you

don’t count that little hairpin bend on the Brecon ride when I first

had the Sporty, Postie!) and I felt so proud that I’d reached the top.

If ever you get the chance to do it then you won’t be disappointed.

For those ladies joining us in

Bath, I will be sending out some

details in the next week or so, so

if you have changed your contact

details, please let me know.

Also, just a reminder to keep 17

January free for the LoH New

Year dinner.

Thanks for reading.

Bye for now,

Sue x

Well done, New Forest Chapter, another great Rally! This year the goodie bags had school boaters for the girls and caps for the boys; toy pull-back cars, rings, school badges, sweets, and the usual gifts of bottled water and loo rolls (the caravans don’t provide it!) Fifteen members of Thames Valley joined in the fun, staying in caravans dotted around the site. It would have been better if they had grouped chapters together but it wasn’t too far to walk - if you could remember the caravan numbers!

The 45 minute rideout on Saturday was very well organised with a police escort and excellent marshalling all-round. Over 500 bikes enjoyed the ride with many of them taking part in the charity, ’Cash for Kids’ Bike Show at the Pavilion. Two Thames Valley members came away with trophies! Good accommodation, good friends, good entertainment, good food, and good weather! What more could you ask for at a rally?

A nd so, the time for our long anticipated trip had finally arrived. It was Friday 29th August and we were travelling to the Holiday Inn Express, Ashford, to meet up with the rest of the group. It was bright and early on the Saturday morning when we all set off for the Channel Tunnel as part of the a Hadrain V Twin Alpine Adventure. a The next 16 days would be spent exploring the high mountain passes and majestic scenery of the European Alps and Dolomite Mountains and taking in the European Bike Week at Faak Am See in Austria. We had met the group earlier in the year at The London Excel Bike Show where Nigel, Jan, Dot and John (our Hadrian V Twin tour

guides) had given us a pre-trip briefing and a chance to meet the other riders who we'd be sharing this experience with. They seemed to be a very nice group of people, who would turn out to be great friends as the days rolled on. The first couple of days were spent just riding to get to the Alpine ranges where our real experience would begin.

We travelled through France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Austria, Italy and Switzerland. We stopped at some great hotels and dined in some good restaurants along the way, where everything was laid on for us. We didn't have to worry about any- thing, just enjoy each other's com- pany and the riding.

This summer, Paul & Julie Houghton and Sue & Dave Brown, decided to do something a little different. This small, written piece is an attempt to give just a taste of their journey...

A typical day would start off after breakfast by loading our suitcases and bags into the support van and assembling at the bikes, ready to roll at about 8:30 each morning. We'd usually stop for a coffee break mid morning, a decent lunch on route, another coffee break mid afternoon and aim to arrive at each of the 10 different first-class hotels by approx 5pm each evening. We would be covering, on average, approx 200 miles of good roads with lovely scenery each day. Our group consisted of 21 people on 12 bikes and each came from different riding backgrounds and different levels of experience. We were all to gain extra skills in the coming days as we negotiated the stunning Grossglockner Pass, the twists and turns of the Furka Pass, the beautiful Susten Pass, the ride above the clouds on the Grimsel Pass, and the miles of cobblestones on the Old St Gotthard Pass. And, the breath-taking, never-to-be-forgotten, steep,steep climbs; sharp, sharp hairpin bends and even steeper, steeper descents of the famous Stelvio Pass.

As we stopped to catch our breath at the top of Stelvio and looked back down at the road we had just ridden it became very clear why Top Gear had voted it the best driving road in Europe, possibly the world.

There was a huge sense of achievement in the camp that particular evening and group hugs helped to cement the friend-ships that had formed. Midway through our Adventure we

stopped for a few nights in Villach, Austria and took in the European Bike week. The Rally is set around the banks of Faak Am See lake and consisted of several biker villages, the biggest being Harley World.

17

18

Thousands of bikers ambled around the various trader tents, bars, food outlets and listened to the bands playing late into the night. The con-stant thunder of Harley David-sons was never far away as they continually rolled past doing lap after lap of the lake in a never ending procession. If you haven't already been then I recommend that you add it to your “to do” list. Villach is perfectly placed for the rally, its a nice town with plenty of hotels and restau-rants and is in easy reach of the lake. You can ride there during the day (be prepared to do several laps of the lake while searching for a parking place) and then return again later in

the evening, by train, so that you can enjoy a drink or two while listening to the live entertainment on the main stage, or in the smaller bars dotted

around. Its a huge event claimed to be on par with Sturgis in the USA. During our tour we had a couple of occasions where we stopped for two nights and had the chance for a day off if we chose to. Nige still had rideouts planned for those who wanted to continue in the saddle and on both occasions of course we did.

19

The scenery was just too stunning to miss out on and, as the group was

smaller on those days, we could let off some steam and ride faster :-) I have ridden many miles in my time but nothing as stunning, varied and often challenging as this. There was just so many different riding experiences all packed into one great adventure. If you fancy a biking holiday where all the planning and hard work is done for

you, I would highly recommend Hadrian V Twin, they are just great - very professional and very friendly too. There were a few with lumps in their throats when the time finally

came to say our goodbyes and go our separate

ways; we had shared some great memories and forged some good friendships as well as having a fantastic holiday covering almost 2,800 miles, many of those around the Faak Am See Lake.

Saturday, 11th October, saw our first Saturday Social of the season. Twenty one people enjoyed a leisurely lunch at The Jolly Woodman, a quaint little pub in Burnham. It was great to see Bernie out for the first time since his sudden hospital stay, and great for everyone to catch up with each other’s

news. Some had come from Guildford’s open day, and some went there, after lunch.

Thames Valley Chapter took part in a solemn and moving service

and Di line up to lay a wreath on behalf of our Chapter

Some months ago I was asked if I could publish an explanation of the Second Man Drop-Off system in the mag. I was reluctant to “re-invent the wheel” and so I have taken some information I found on the net and tweaked it a little to suit our riding style.

Here at Thames Valley HOG, we usually prefer to adopt the second man drop-off system where there are 6 or more riders in the group. Such a group will consist of a minimum of a LEAD Road Captain and a TAIL Road Captain. The lead road captain and/or their pillion will be wearing a YELLOW hi-vis vest and the tail road captain will be wearing an ORANGE hi-vis vest.

The second man drop-off system for group riding.

The second man drop-off

system of ride management

is designed to allow each

member of a group of

riders to arrive at a given

destination, irrespective of

the delays that riders

behind the lead Road

Captain may experience.

The system is based on

the principle of leaving a

rider (the second man) at

key points on a route to

direct following riders to

the correct route.

I hope that none of our

lady riders will mind my

use of the term "man"

throughout this article, I'm

using it just for continuity

with the name "second

man drop-off".

When will the lead

Road Captain drop

the second man to

mark the route?

The Road Captain leading a

ride SHOULD ALWAYS

drop off a rider to mark a

change of direction when

at roundabouts, junctions

etc.

The lead Road Captain may

not drop a rider where the

route is straight on and

where there is no doubt

about which road is the

straight ahead route.

Exceptions to this rule

apply where a lead Road

Captain has identified that

a rider cannot be dropped

to mark a route for legal

reasons (such as marking

a motorway exit) or where

they judge that there is no

safe place at which to

drop the second man to

mark the route. In these

exceptional situations, the

lead Road Captain should

have clearly identified the

correct route during the

pre-ride briefing.

The lead Road Captain

will give clear hand signals

to indicate where he/she

would like the second man

to drop off to mark a route.

Initially, the lead Road

Captain's arm will be bent

with a finger pointing to

the sky. This is the sign

that the second man

should be ready to drop

off.

When the lead Road

Captain points at the kerb,

this indicates the point at

which he/she wants the

second man to stop. The

lead Road Captain may

give signals with his/her

left or right hand indicating

on which side of the

carriageway the second

man should stop.

The second man must

always be vigilant for

these signals - particularly

when approaching

junctions/roundabouts etc.

If you find yourself

behind the lead

Road Captain, you

are the second man!

The second man in a ride

group should maintain a

minimum of 2 seconds

gap between him/herself

and the lead Road

Captain in order to have

adequate time to follow

the lead Road Captain's

instructions.

The second man should

be aware that the lead

Road Captain may wish to

drop a rider off at any time

- sometimes a lead Road

Captain may, for instance,

wish to drop a rider off on

a long straight stretch of

road.

The lead Road Captain

may indicate that the

second man should drop

off to the left or right hand

side of a lane in the road

so the second man needs

to be in a good position to

stop where indicated - for

this reason, the second

man should ride in the

middle of the lane.

The second man, when

stopping, must ensure that

he/she stops in a safe

place. If he/she is not

satisfied that the stopping

place indicated by the lead

Road Captain is safe then

he/she should look for an

alternative which is safe

and from which he/she

can clearly communicate

the route that following

riders should take.

Lead Road Captain wears YELOW

Tail Road Captain wears ORANGE

26

27

When a rider has been

dropped off to mark a route,

he/she must make it clear

which direction the following

riders should take. This may

be achieved purely by their

position on the road where

stopped (as indicated by the

lead Road Captain), or by

pointing out the correct

route to following riders by

appropriate hand signals.

When the tail end Road

Captain arrives at the point

at which a dropped off rider

is stationed, the tail end

Road Captain will clearly

communicate that the

stationary rider can now

leave their station and will

give the rider an opportunity

to re-join the ride.

As explained in the second

article in this series, riders

may have to wait a signifi-

cant amount of time (20 or

30 minutes is not unusual)

before the tail end Road

Captain arrives at their

position. It is crucial that

dropped off riders do not

leave their station until the

tail end Road Captain

arrives as the ride will break

down if they do.

Points to note for

riders following the

second man

The rider behind the second

man should retain his/her

place on the road (i.e. on

the left or right of the

stagger) and should ensure

that he/she is far enough

behind the second man to

allow the second man to

stop safely in the place

indicated by the lead Road

Captain. The two second

gap should be maintained

between the second man

and the next rider.

If the second man does not

stop when the lead Road

Captain indicates that he/

she wants to leave a rider

as a route marker, the third

rider should drop off to

indicate the correct route to

following riders. Again, this

should only be if this rider

can find an appropriate and

safe stopping point.

Riders who are close behind

the third rider should there-

fore be very aware that they

may need to drop off if the

second man does not stop.

When a rider has been

dropped off to mark the

route, the following riders

MUST NOT switch to the

opposite side of the stagger

- this introduces an

unnecessary additional

element of risk.

Points to note for

riders who have been

delayed and are no

longer with the lead

group.

When approaching junc-

tions /roundabouts etc riders

who are detached from the

lead group should be aware

of any particular instructions

given by the lead Road

Captain during the pre-ride

briefing.

If the rider is on a motorway

section of the route, the pre-

ride briefing will include

details of which exit to take

from the motorway.

If there is a rider dropped off

to mark the route, then the

rider should follow the

direction indicated by the

dropped rider.

If there is no rider marking

the route and no specific

instruction relating to this

junction, then riders should

always assume that the

route is straight ahead.

This is a situation in which it

is vital that dropped off rid-

ers on the correct route

maintain their stations to

enable the second (lost)

group to re-join the main

body of riders.

Group riding can be great

fun but it does require that

good practice is observed

by everyone to ensure that

all riders arrive at the same

destination in safety.
