Can't see your picture Andy, I assume this is where you'll join us:-

And my eta at Horton of 10.35 was based on this old fart thiking we're leaving the start at 10.00 not 10.15
Your estimate of 10.45 is more like it

Sergiu, welcome to SouthWestBikers 
I was planning a fast ride but will moderate the pace for you as a new rider. Hope you have a decent sized bike to keep up because we'd prefer not to have to slow right down for a low powered 125cc bike. Please get to the start at 10.00 so we can chat about how we do ride outs before the off at 10.15.
And as Simon (billinom8s) posted please introduce yourself with a post in the "Say hello" section of the forum. We'd like to know the usual stuff like; what bike you ride, riding experience, where in the area you're based, are you into ride outs, trackdays, off road riding...

Looking forward to it, I'm not the fat3st rider in the world but don't mind giving it the beans now and then 
This might be a stupid question.... but one piece leathers or the usual jeans and jacket ..... don't fancy showing off my brand new knee sliders on my own

Jacket and jeans would not be out of place, or wear your leathers with pride.
Most of us grey ones can't get our knees out without popping a hip, so smooth and rapid is the mantra

Andy, your image icon didn't reveal the image promptly causing this befuddled old fart to reply regarding meeting Richard at Forton. See you and John at Wrangway. Be ready to get going when we get to Wrangway as we won't be stopping, just slowing for you to join.
Depart from start 10.15
Slow down for Andy and John at Wrangway 10.20-10.25
Slow down for Richard at Forton 10.50 ish

Jim, wear a dress and high heels if you want. We don't judge on appearances
And are you saying you're not the fastest or fattest rider
