Chapter Ride Information
The following information is provided to assist those unfamiliar with chapter rides.
Generally the following arrangements will be made, unless we have clashes with the events calendar or there is a bank holiday (busy roads) etc:-
PLEASE CHECK THE WEBSITE CALENDAR BEFORE ATTENDING ANY RIDE OR EVENT, TO CONFIRM START TIME, DEPARTURE POINT AND ANY POSSIBLE CHANGES OR CANCELLATIONS.
The Chapter offers lots of different types of rides and activities held usually on Saturday and Sunday.
The Chapter also runs Midweek rides to take advantage of quieter roads and to offer a ride to those members who can't always make weekend rides because of work commitments. For details of all rides and activities please check the website calendar and Bridgwater HOGs Members Facebook Page
New member’s rides are run from time to time to show you the way we ride as a Chapter, these are also for any member to refresh their group riding skills, usually meeting at Riders on a Saturday. As always check the website to confirm meeting point and Start time
Road Captains will give a brief on the ride and any special arrangements prior to the ride. Please ask if you’re unsure of anything, especially if you’re not used to Second man drop, and staggered formation riding further information is available here.
