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.

Re: this is the end.............beautiful the end

I'd like to thank Jim Chapman and suggest he doesn't take a bath in a french capital soon!?!....or in fact, my mon Amie, tu as un air boueux, pourquoi prendre un bain, elle est une bouteille de quelque chose.
p.s. They tend not to hold their noses in France.
oh yes, and keep yer fingers out of the butter!

Re: this is the end.............beautiful the end

I'm not a poet, but will be out tonight.

Re: this is the end.............beautiful the end

I'm not a poet either, although I am an artist of sorts.

I should be out.
