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.

Anyway, I'm hoping to be at Brookside in an hour or so. I have a route plan too.

Re: The Bells

Propper F***ed thismorning my back feels like Quasimodo's and the legs arn't much better. 53 miles I reckon in the end and as the last 13 or so were in to a head wind

Thank the lord for Golden Sheep! I did not feel the cold at all.........

Maybe my legs screaming at me took my mind off the weather?
