DISCLAIMER. MOUNTAIN BIKING CAN BE DANGEROUS. YOU JOIN US AT YOUR OWN RISK.

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.

Longbow, Stapleford

"Now I'm running errands
you're ringing bells and running away
I'll never know
what makes me need to pay and pay

I'll meet you in summer
I'll meet you on the longest day
we'll remember the great big world
say I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you"


Anyone out tonight?

Re: Longbow, Stapleford

i'm gonna do my best to be out too!

Re: Longbow, Stapleford

Having started the thread, I regret that I'm no longer meeting you on the longest day. No doubt I will meet you in summer, though.

Going to gird my loins and prep my bike for the weekend's riding ahead. And put the kids to bed.

Have a good one and wish me and Tony luck for the Polaris!
