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.

Runslist changes

The Runslist Coven have declared that in the depth of winter, Tuesdays shall be Blue Ball day, to keep the ride home short for most people.

A couple of other changes made to the Thursday venues to keep the balance.

Re: Runslist changes - Thetford or not?

Seems the coven hadn't actually quite decided what they wanted to do over the Thetford run scheduled for Jan 18th... I know at least two riders are planning on going, so it's back in the list and anyone who doesn't fancy it or can't make the start time can organise a local ride as usual.
