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.

Pyranees trip September 2014

Pete Fenton and I will be returning to the Pyranees for a week of guided mountain biking in September with AQR Holidays. We are planning to go on Saturday 13 September and return on 20 September. Flights are either from Gatwick to Toulouse on Easyjet or heathrow to Toulouse on BA (at a slightly more convenient time and with the BA sale still a good price)

It’s a great place to ride with lots of undulating climbs that will wipe the smile of even the most chilled out riders and singletrack to make even the grumpiest people smile!
