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.

Oi slags,

Has anyone seen a mug shot of me recently in a local freebie rag. I bumped into some friends today and they mentioned that theirs a pic of me in the local freebie paper but they wasn't sure which paper. It was taken at one of the Thetford mtb racing events, go on have a gander and let me know.

Thanks Shelton

Re: Read all about it

Sorry Shelton, But your email ref front row seats & their vendors justification of high prices was alot more interesting

Re: Read all about it

I've had search through on line, Shelton, but I couldn't find it. The thought crossed my mind to post a link to an inappropriate or funny story, but I'm too grown up for that sort of stuff now....

If you locate it and the photo is any good, send it and I might use it on the forum.

Cheers
