SUMMARY:Group-organised ride to Pebmarsh
DESCRIPTION:The weather is looking promising for our Group-organised ride on Sunday 19th May\, led by Patrick Ryan & tail-ended by Catherine Ryan \nThis 88-mile loop starts and ends from BP Cambridge (Newmarket Road). We head off on familiar roads through Six Mile Bottom & the Thurlows to Sturmer\, where we briefly join the Haverhill bypass heading west. After a left turn for Steeple Bumpstead we head through Finchingfield & Castle Hedingham\, with our breakfast destination at the Flame & Grill a few miles further east. Their website modestly describes the venue as set in ‘an idyllic converted stable in the beautiful countryside village of Pebmarsh’ – and the consensus on a CAM rideout there was that it lived up to its billing! The breakfast menu can be found near the bottom of this page \nThe slightly shortly return journey first heads north through Sudbury then on to Cavendish and Clare\, where the ride turns north onto the B1063 as it meanders its way to Newmarket. The final section of the journey is along the A1303 back to BP in Cambridge. Pillions are welcome on this ride \nDeparture/end point  BP Cambridge (Newmarket Road)   what3words \nBriefing  9:20am                     Ride departs  9:30am\nTotal distance  88 miles        Maximum number of participants  12 \nUse this link to request a place

SUMMARY:Ride Leader & Tail Ender training
DESCRIPTION:We learned a lot from the two Ride Leader & Tail-Ender training sessions held in 2023 – the key takeaway that all participants on a group ride benefit from understanding the various guidelines (such as limiting the number of riders to 16\, and having a structured pre-ride briefing) which we have in place. Last year we opened RL&TE training session to all Members & Associates\, with the aim that eventually all Members will have attended\, reducing the number of problems which arise on rides\, and making our outings safer\, more accessible & a better experience for all \nOur first RL&TE training session of 2024 will be held at Over Community Centre on Saturday 11th May \nWho can attend? All Members & Associates are welcome (but Associates must have begun Observed Rides and their Observer confirmed that their riding is at a suitable standard) \nInterested in joining the Ride Leader & Tail-Ender team? Start the ball rolling now by signing up below \nEnjoy Group rides but don’t wish to lead or tail?  By signing up for this training  you’ll be supporting our RL&TE team\, and helping improve our Group rides \nHaven’t yet joined a CAM group ride? Take the plunge at this informative\, free training session! \nAlready a member of the RL&TE team? Join us at Over to refresh your skills and lend your experience to those looking to join the team! \n  \nWhat’s involved? \nThe day starts at 10am and is expected to end by 4pm. The day begins in the seminar room with Module 1\, which is accompanied by a PowerPoint presentation and lasts around 90 minutes. A break follows with tea\, coffee & biscuits. Module 2 presentation follows\, lasting roughly 30 minutes \nAfter a break for lunch (please bring your own sandwiches)\, we move onto the practical\, on-road session – so it’s essential that attendees arrive by bike. Although not essential\, preferably attendees will be equipped with a SatNav. Current members of the RL&TE team as well as potential new recruits will have the opportunity to brief riders before heading a 20-mile ride where they will have be able to ride in both the Lead & Tail positions. There will be a Q&A back in the seminar room to close the session. \n  \nIn summary: whether you’re an experienced member of the RL&TE team\, looking to join\, or would simply like to better help make our Group rides safer & more enjoyable\, please support our RL&TE team by requesting a place on Saturday 11th May by clicking here now \n

SUMMARY:Barbara Horley\, speedway referee
DESCRIPTION:Barbara Horley relates her experience as a National Speedway Referee \n \nMembers\, Associates & their guests are warmly invited to Over Community Centre on Monday 8th April\, for Barbara’s presentation to CAM on her experience as a National Speedway Referee. An accomplished speaker\, Barbara’s presentation is sure to be lively and entertaining. The evening will conclude with a Q&A session \nBarbara\, in her own words: \nMy interest in speedway started when I was very young\, accompanying my father & uncle to the track. Having attended speedway school nearly twenty years ago\, I decided to become part of the sport: riding wasn’t for me and so I trained to become a referee. In this role I have to travel all over the country\, from Glasgow to Plymouth\, taking charge of meetings in all three tiers of racing\nI have one other link to speedway: six years ago I began studying for a PhD and am about to submit my thesis on Speedway Racing in England from 1928 to 1965. I have also presented a number of papers on speedway at academic conferences. I can honestly say that speedway has been an important part of my life for a very long time!
