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.

Tonight

It appears to be the week to be out, so does anyone else fancy a pootle in the rain this evening?

Venue to be confirmed later as Duncan thinks the Queen's Head in Folwmere is closed. One option would be the Queen's Head in Newton, which would be a short ride home if really wet.

Re: Tonight

The family trousers are going to be "a little bit late tonight" So not sure at mo.

Re: Tonight

Tess and I will be out. Waterproofs at the ready!

Re: Tonight

I might be out. I have forgotten to charge my lights so it depends on organization levels.

Re: Tonight

Not sure if I'll make it or not, now. Will see you there if I can.

Re: Tonight

Yep, I will be out
