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.

Anyone fancy a bimble this morn/lunch time

I've got to work late afternoon tomorrow & on Sunday BUT...........,,,,,.....
If anyone fancies a bimble in the sun I'd be happy to join them!?!?!?!?!
p.s.
Weather tomo looks fair dinkem etc etc
Would be a pity not to?!?

p.s.
Did anybody else know that Niner steel frames only carry a two year warranty, two years, two years....oh, good to know they've got alot of faith in their frame design, two years....my clockwork is 22 years old and has seen more heavy riding than a lady of the night in Skelmersdale....and she ain't broken.
Was a suprise but, hey ho in this era of corperate twaddle........they can stick it up their arrissess. If they want to be part of the family they need to offer the reassuring qualities that say Specialized offer.... for crying out loud even Salsa offer five years.
So thinking about a Niner..... are you going to live more than the next two years??
buy somit else?!?
