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.

Thanks for your good wishes last night guys, it must have worked, I passed the interview and now have 2 job offers to chose from
See you next week/next time you are out on Thursday.
Pat
Well done pat, I imagine your forestry
Skills helped to nail it (in an 80's way)
Give us all the info and we can help you make a balanced intelligent decision tomorrow eve at the pub...... At the end of a tiring ride....... after a few pints.....? in fact do you need us to write your acceptance letter?
P. S. You'd better not be vacating the area, could be years before we could replace you as our resident Scandinavian goth rock expert.
Come on
... Spill the beans or in fact....
No don't! 
Well done Pat! Congratulations!
Clearly the pre-interview ride worked.
well, simply put, i went for a job based in Melbourn (near Royston before you get too excited) working in the inhouse IT team for PA Consulting.
simply put, i liked it, they like me, i start on 6th Oct.
so, no not moving, and with luck i will be anle to cycle a couple of times a week so may get faster again
and i get a nice little pay rise to cover the commute costs if i dont cycle.
give you all the rest of the details tonight.
