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.

Lord Byron tonight?

Anyone out tonight

Re: Lord Byron tonight?

I'm planning to road it on my road bike (still bored of cleaning mud off my mtb...). I'll stop at Brookside at 7.30 and finish at the pub if anyone else is thinking of doing the same.

Hoping to be out and go muddy tonight

Re: Lord Byron tonight?

I'm planning to be out on the Off Road bike, but am sticking to the roads, as said bike needs a wash, not a further coating of mud. See you at the start.

Re: Lord Byron tonight?

Hoping to be out, mud and all.

Re: Lord Byron tonight?

I'll be roading tonight with Mike T and Pete T, also on my mountain bike.

(I don't have a road bike.)
