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.

Hi Peeps, Who is leading the ride on Thurs? only I would like to know the Pub/location, after all im in the whimp catergory. No im def not offering to lead the ride.

Re: Show us yours

I had mentioned I would, but unfortunately work requires me to be elsewhere. Sorry.

Re: Show us yours

How about the Blue Ball? We can do almost anything and finish there. Just a short hop back to town, and good beer!
Might be a problem if there's loads of us though.
Any other suggestions?

Re: Show us yours

Blue Ball sounds good (I wont bother suggesting the white thingey in Foxton!), and the weather is looking super duper. I do believe they serve rather fine cider there too ! Hoping to be out tomorrow.

Re: Show us yours

Blue Ball sounds good to me too, although not sure about the cider!

cider?....did i hear someone mention cider?...count me in!

Blue ball and cider sound good to me!

Re: Show us yours

That sounds like the pub-stop's sorted then.

But who will lead and "show us their's" in getting there? Any takers?

I can try to dream-up a route for approval by the posse....

Today you will be free of any technical problem, I hope ... ;)

Not going to be able to make it tonight, I will have to have a glass of cider at home ! Enjoy the ride. See you out next week.
