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.

Here are the awards categories:-

1. Least put-off /most persistent newcomer of the year
2. Worst Adherence to the Use of English on the Forum
3. Best Tues/Thurs Ride
4. Instigator of the most "exciting/alternate" ride of the year
5. Crasher of the year
6. Best Comedy-off
7. Bike wrecker of the year
8. Navigator of the year (leader hasn't got a clue where we are going)
9. Best bling bike/Pimped Ride of the Year
10. Cheapskate of the year – clearly the least amount of money spent on bike
11. Least Sensible Rider
12. Rider That Looks Most Like or is constantly mistaken for someone else
13. Nicest, Most Polite Rider
