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.
  • Don't ride too close to the person in front. If they crash into a badger, you'll need time to swerve.

Re: Thetford Tues

I think I am a Tuesday this week.

Re: Thetford Tues

Yes I fancy Thetford.

Re: Thetford Tues

Yes I'm up for a ride, 20:00 at BCP?

Re: Thetford Tues

I'm up for Thetford tomorrow, if someone is able to give me a lift there please?

Mike

Re: Thetford Tues

planing on riding as well.

Mike, where are you located I will have room in the car?

Re: Thetford Tues

Thanks Paul.

I'll be at home in Milton. If you send me an email with the time I can reply with the address.

I've put my email address below (not on the contacts spreadsheet, must do something about that).

Re: Thetford Tues

I'm feeling quite keen on this one, due to the excellent weather recently. I don't have transport at the moment, as the DVLA has been holding my license hostage for months now in the changeover from Aus... I live out in Comberton, but could travel to town if motivated to do so :) Would anybody be able to supply a lift? Please reply to my email address if you are able, otherwise I hope you have a great ride!

Re: Thetford Tues

hi Jason.

I'm in Comberton and can give a lift, if you're interested.

I've mailed you my address
