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.

Thetford

Hi Paul/ You'll are we going tonight..... Looking at the state of the fields, prob the best place to go rather than wallow in the mire?!?

Re: Thetford

I'm planning on going.

Conditions can't be any worse there than they are here at the moment.

Re: Thetford

My Mother in Law is coming over from Thetford for dinner, so much as I would love to pass her going in the opposite direction on the A11, I won't be out
