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.

All in all it's just another Bees in the Wall

Hi,

The rain forecast doesn't look as bad this evening so I will probably risk it. Any others out?

Probably be a knobbly tyre night.

Hope to make it out. It does look like the worst of the rain may have passed:

hmmm, don't have nobbly tyres on the bike.

Oh well planning on being out for a bimble anyway...

Hi All,

I'm planning to be out. Assuming there's just been enough rain to lay the dust it should be quite pleasant......
