Well if the lads got a brief and decided to go outside that then there is no arguments really.
I suppose the club don't want to get a bad name in the 'media' as such`also... I know that on some biking outings I've done in the past the coppers monitored forums and gave everyone a pain in the backside... NOT for speeding or misbehaving but more that we got stopped and had to show tax insurance and got our vehicles looked through... more like harassment and time wasting then anything else.
On the other side of safety for members and the forum being responsible for the meet itself then well it’s not ok to danger anyone…
