SAFETY BRIEFING.

  • Wear a helmet. Despite recent advances in medical science, brains still cannot be mended nor replaced.
  • Wear gloves or mitts. Hands often hit the ground first. Cuts and grazes invite infection and a hospital visit.
  • Wear eye protection, it only takes a twig or thorn to lose an eye. Crud catchers are a good idea in mucky weather.
  • When downhilling, for your own protection, allow plenty of space behind the rider in front.
  • Bring a bare minimum emergency tool kit and a spare inner tube.
  • Breakdowns are a bore. Plan not to have any by ensuring your bike is in perfect working order.
  • Punctures are also tedious. You can minimise them by fitting latex tubes, slime tubes or running tubeless tyres.

New Bike

Very excited!!!
I just got myself a new bike.
Should be great for summer.
Lightweight and environmentally friendly too.
Bit worried about the rain though.

Re: New Bike

Great user reviews too!

Shelton, you could probably make your own version at work and flog it to the students. Don't forget a waste paper basket for the front though. Essential on a Cambridge bike.
