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.

Kind of a nice night for a bimble into the mud me thinks 
I thought I'd reply just so you don't feel lonely, Paul!
Looks like you're going to be by yourself, judging by the pin-drop quietness of the forum. Sadly, I won't be out - I have managed to get shingles. Quite the most unpleasant experience - don't try this at home, kids...
