INFORMATION UPDATE No.4 - Issued 15/8/2010
A. Online Registration System & Ordering of Rideout Wristbands / Commemorative T-Shirts
A reminder to those of you who are using our online Registration system to sign up for the Rideout...
Every rider and passenger registering for the Rideout will automatically receive one Black Rat wristband each.
Any additional wristbands you order using the Registration Form will not be sent to you in the post. You will receive them on the day of the rideout (together with your entry wristbands) when you register your arrival with our Ride Marshals.
In order to collect your wristbands on the day you must bring with you a copy of the email sent to you by The Black Rat Fund (not the Sagepay Transaction email) confirming your registration and the number of additional wristbands you purchased.
Commemorative T-Shirts ordered as part of the Registration Form will be sent to you in the post. You should allow 28 days for delivery.
Alll other commemorative items which are ordered by placing separate orders through the Black Rat Shop will be sent out by post to you in the normal way. For all items in the shop please allow 28 days for delivery.
B. Local Accommodation Listings
To assist those of you who are travelling a distance to attend our Rideout, and who may wish to stay overnight in the area we have prepared two lists. One gives a list of local camping sites - most have both provision for tents and also have caravans for rent. The second gives a list of local guest houses, B&Bs and small hotels in the area.
Please click on the appropriate link below to open the documents in an Adobe PDF format, which can be printed out if you wish.

C. Ride Slots and Arrival Times
To help people decide which Ride Slots they should select during registration, we have prepared a table which will shows the likely departure times for each ride group in each slot. It also shows the likely finish time of your ride.
PLEASE NOTE THAT THE RIDE CIRCUIT WILL NOW TAKE APPROXIMATELY 1 HOUR TO COMPLETE – not 45 minutes as originally thought. This is because the route has been slightly extended.
All registered riders will be allocated to a ride group within their slot WHEN THEY ARRIVE AT MARNE BARRACKS - NOT BEFORE.
Obviously these timings are approximate and will depend on each group departing on time on the day – this is something we cannot control but you can by turning up on time and helping us stay on schedule!
