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.

How about a quick, damp spin to the east. Quy? Horningsea? I have to be up and away early so fancy a home match.

You scallywags! If I knew you were headed to the Fenz I would have popped by.

Re: Tonight’s train out bike back

Elsenham is I understand the destination station for Thurs 27th. I'm sure someone will be along with train times, or a fresh post, containing said times.:slightly_smiling_face:

Re: Tonight’s train out bike back

Are we allowed cunning plans?
