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.

Sofa and whisky look attractive.

Re: Shepreth

Come on Tony, the rain might well stop by 5pm

Re: Shepreth

Will be out tonight

Re: Shepreth

Hi All,

I'll be out. The rain is due to stop and we're in for a dry evening, from the sky at least.

Tyres on the Salsa have just been changed for Nobby Nic's in anticipation of sloppier conditions - 75 ml of fresh Doc Blue in each one. What can possibly go wrong?

Tom

PS - I'm NOT riding Pat's riverside trail tonight. I would even go out of my way not to.

Re: Shepreth

Hi All

I'll be roading it to the pub - I need a steady ride and have only just got my Zesty clean from Tuesday - actually this is really to avoid riding Pat's riverside trail. Please let me know if destination changes, thanks.

Re: Shepreth

Not for me tonight, was out in the car earlier and the amount of standing water was awful, it will be a swamp out there tonight!
Hopefully next week——

Can anyone confirm the Christmas dinner date please?

Re: Shepreth

Re: Shepreth

Re: Shepreth

Re: Shepreth

That's right, Norman. It's "Non".
