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.

The White Fox in Horseton?

Anyone out tonight? I will be.

Re: The White Fox in Horseton?

Hoping so. There may be some last-minute faffing at work that I need to do, but barring that I should be on time.... ish.

If not, I will text you, Tony, and arrange a rendezvous.

Probably out on sturdier tyres after the rain...

PT

Re: The White Fox in Horseton?

Unfortunately not tonight, food and drink are getting in the way

Re: The White Fox in Horseton?

I'll be there, hoping that no-one's crank falls off in Newnham this time.

Re: The White Fox in Horseton?

Tell us more Norm

Re: The White Fox in Horseton?

It wasn't me. Not in Newnham.

Newton maybe...

Re: The White Fox in Horseton?

Hi Norman,

I have a note on my phone that you still owe me for your Christmas Dinner, 2017.

It will be great to see you this evening.

Tom
