Stu,
   It may be worthwhile to consider that you are the
router. A friend or neighbor has told you that you can
reach another network if you go via a certain
destination point i.e interface address. So this route
you now understand that to get to this network go that
way.

Your job now is to tell your neighbors that you have
this new information so you inform them in your next
network update that this route exists. 

Their is no point in telling the router from which you
learned the new route from, since it told you first,
this is called split horizon.

The answer to your question is that RIP will advertise
the new network for you.

HTH,

Phil.
