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.

Green Man, Grantchester

Hi,

Not, not coming out, just to emphasise that the Winter Runs List starts tonight with the Green Man. Fancy dress optional.

Paul has now completed the full Runs List (all hail the RLF) and I will post it later.

Have a good ride!

Hoping Mike and myself will make it out later, will skip the fancy dress, or I might just come as someone on a push bike, many would say thats fancy dress enough in its self ;)

Apologies in advance for slowing you all down yet again :(

Steve

Re: Green Man, Grantchester

Re: Green Man, Grantchester

I joined you guys a couple of months ago for a ride, but I should be a bit more regular now
