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.

Lord Byron Trumpington - tonight!

Anyone out for a hopefully short bimble to the above hostelry? Weather looks dry, not too windy, but a tad cold.

I shall be testing a new configuration of mud tyres, but looking at our mud it seems to have dried off a fair bit. Thus yet another non-representative test.....

Re: Lord Byron Trumpington - tonight!

May be out Pete. Will confirm later

Re: Lord Byron Trumpington - tonight!
