Devon & Cornwall Ridouts - Comments on merging threads please.

[Marjorie Proops]

Hi folks,

Since the first thread relating to these rideouts last September, they have proved to be immensely popular with increasing numbers at each event

However the threads are getting a bit scraggly with lots of out of date information on 'what weekend suits', 'where shall we meet up' etc. so I need to do a bit of housekeeping to save on BHT's Tiscali bills.

Does anyone have any objections therefore if I merge the four threads to date and at the same time edit out all the irrelevant stuff leaving just the post rideout reports and photos?

I'll make them into one thread which could then be 'stickied' and put a link in the main thread to each of the individual rideouts. We can then just add further post rideout reports to the main thread.

It should make life easier for any newcomers to see what we get up to.

Does anybody apart from Andy D) think that this would constitute an abuse of moderators powers?

Any other suggestions for what you like included in the main thread?

Cheers all,

Steve

Editing and merging the ride out threads sounds a good idea Steve.
I seem to recall these types of ride outs were your idea in the beginning










oh, and sorry for winding up the mods last week

 

[GriffsGS]

[Jaq]

Steve....that sounds like yet another good idea of yours.....it would make it simpler for the likes of me at least.....

And.....I LIKE the way Nates mind works...... ...

Come on Pastyman where are you?..........trouble is will the rest of us be able to keep up with him

Sorry Steve this threads getting as bad as the others. Great idea to merge the threads if it groups all the pics and useful info together and cuts out the chaff. That way gives those that enjoyed the rides something to look back on and others who may want to come along and take part can see what its all about. As Andy says well done for getting the rides started in the first place.

Here I am

Devon did ask me a while ago and I would like to organise a ride around the Lizard peninsula soon. I have a number of commitments but should be able to do something over the weekend of 14/15 th June.. How does that fit with everyone else. (recon weve still got about three weeks to um and aarh to sort out details)

[Nate]

I'm always up for umming and ahhhing



Count me in

 

[(RIP) pastyman]

Saturday's best for me but sunday's OK also. IMHO it's probably best to choose the date that suits you best Pastyman.

As Steve points out in his opening post, I guess it would be a good idea to sort out how these ride outs are posted in the south west section of the forum?

Thought you had a ride on Sunday 15th June Nate

Right in the middle of my night shifts afraid, but may be able to sort something if you decide on the date soon.

 

[(RIP) pastyman]

I can do either so its up to you guys.
I suppose we may hear from Smiler and Happy P after the weekend when they get back from lounging about on the boat in the marina. Jaq might also be sober and hungry after Basketville and similar for the others.

 

[smiler]

hi pastyman, thanks we had a lovely time, the sun shone all weekend. we will try and make the 14th/15th but might change due to cruising lol smiler/happy pilgrim

Pastyman, I have just checked and sunday the 15th June is Father's day: I am guessing a lot of chaps will want to be with their family that day so saturday the 14th would be the best day
