Ride Participant must provide written evidence of accepting a Ride Invitation:

(ix)         I accept that -

 

              (a)       each weekly Bullsheet details a Ride Invitation provided by the Ride Organiser (Inviter) that invites readers to join the upcoming Muggaccinos' on-road bicycle ride, predicated upon notifying other Ride Participants at a Nosh Stop if they disagree with any clause/s in this 'Ride Participant Liability Acknowledgment' which to date has obviated the need to sign the Inviter's former Ride Sign On Sheet; and

              (b)       should I come to a decision to participate in the upcoming ride as a Ride Participant (Invitee) that, out of courtesy to the Inviter and other Acceptor Ride Participants, I will inform the Ride Organiser (Inviter) by email by 5pm two days prior to the ride (usually 5pm Friday), and in any event no later than 5pm on the day prior to the ride; and

              (c)       should I fail to accept the Ride Invitation in the manner prescribed herein, I will not join the Muggaccinos' ride; and

              (d)       should I suffer Early Onset Brain Degeneration, or should I not own a PC or a 'smart phone', or if I own one or both, but I have forgotten how to use both of them, or my short term memory is becoming more unreliable, or some of these pretexts, and I attend at the ride start without having accepted the Ride Invitation in the manner prescribed in clause (ix)(b) above, that I will execute, prior to commencing the ride, the Inviter's Ride Sign On Sheet which will be crumpled in the Ride Organiser's saddle pack by neatly printing my 'first name' and then my 'surname' and record the ride day's date and inscribe my signature with a crayon provided by the Ride Organiser; and

              (e)       should I nominate my intention to join the ride in the manner prescribed in clause (ix)(b) above, but subsequently decide not to attend the ride because of adverse weather, or whatever, I will inform the Ride Organiser (within reasonable time) by email, SMS or 'phone call to that effect, because if the weather is threatening on the morning of the ride listed in the pertinent Bullsheet, or, as it so happens, on some occasions on the day prior to the ride, the Ride Organiser will make efforts to 'phone other ride Acceptors to ascertain their thoughts about cancelling the listed on-road bicycle ride.

             If an Invitee 'has form' or does not want his Muggs' "sobriquet" listed under 'WHO, WHEN, WHERE' as a Ride Acceptor in the pertinent Bullsheet, then I will inform the Ride Organiser to that effect; maybe your partner does not knows that you are ducking out to participate in a Recreational Activity which involves Three Types of Risks of Harm Sufferable as evidenced by recent fatalities on Kissing Point Rd, Turramurra and Mona Vale Rd, St. Ives or the shocking injuries suffered by Philip Y_ng at the 2016 PBP or Scott aka PatternMaker on the M2 at Sparrow Fart which have presently ended their cycling days. 

              NB:  One stratagem to counter short term memory loss is that the 'Fat Paper' is delivered on Saturdays, whence the weekly Muggs ride is just 'one more sleep away'.  And if you haven't notified the Ride Organiser (Inviter) by email that you are an 'Acceptor' in the timespan prescribed in sub clause (b), and those new fangled toys are a bit too much for you to notify your acceptance, or you are too busy, then ask one of your children.  If they are too busy also, ask one of their children to email BankTeller for you and to c.c. you. If you are notifying on behalf of other readers of the pertinent Bullsheet, that you will meticulously c.c. those other Participants when you email the Ride Organiser.  Otherwise any other Participant/s that you seek to commit on behalf of, will be uncommitted, and will need to inscribe their 'mark', and complete the other pertinent details using the crayon on the "parchment" prior to the ride starting."
