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.

Plough and Fleece

I will be riding tonight, and celebrating my umpteenth birthday with a jar or two. Will anyone join me?
Slow and social rather than fast and furious if that's ok?

Re: Plough and Fleece

If i can get around the M25 in time i will be out failing that i will meet you at the pub....so let me know if there are any changes in destination.

Re: Plough and Fleece

Mark, As it's your birthday I may pop down pub on road bike as the missus dont get home till 19:30 this evening so bit of a push

Re: Plough and Fleece

Re: Plough and Fleece

Slow & social sounds good to me-see you later

Re: Plough and Fleece

Mark,

I like your thinking, sounds like a good plan to me, and a short ride home too - bonus! See you later.
