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.

Anyone know of any bike-friendly house shares?

Thought I might was well ask this on here as Gumtree and CANB are proving rather frustrating. I'm looking for a house share somewhere in town, the main essentials are parking and secure bike storage. For some reason the latter is the main problem - everyone seems to assume you'll be happy to chain your bike up to a drainpipe outside - you guys of course know better ;) If anyone knows of anything going, I'm all ears

Cheers

Mark

Cheers for the offer but I've just agreed to take a place earlier today - if that falls through for any reason I'll get in touch.
