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.

Peak District trip 9th & 10th July

Hi all,
Anyone interested in a trip upto the Peak district on Sat 9th July coming back Sun 10th. I've never ridden up there but heard that it is pretty good. Leave early Sat am, cheap pub or B&B and then back Sun after lunch.

Cheers
GN

Here's your first reply then Stinky...

Sorry, I'm on holiday then. I'm sure you'll get some takers though.

Hey mate,
If you get no takers, then I am up for a ride on the Saturday. Just a one day thing though as I am busy on the Sunday. Anywhere within about 1.5 - 2 hours drive would be okay.
Let me know.
