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.
  • Don't ride too close to the person in front. If they crash into a badger, you'll need time to swerve.

PLEASE NOTE: This Edge 800 will be for sale until 6pm on Fri 25th January, or when someone pays the asking price, whichever is the sooner.

After that, it's going to auction... (current ebay prices are around £200 for a similar used item).

Cheers!

Don't suppose you'd take a couple of freshly culled badgers, a brace of JHB & and a sob story involving an evil heartless ogre, a couple of dud beans and Savilles hits of 74 ?

Funnily enough, Dr Lyons has offered me exactly those items, but he got in there first.

SOLD
