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.

Uncle Tom's Birthday Ride - 3 Horseshoes Stapleford

I plan to ride this evening! 70th Birthdays only happen once.

Some food should be served at 9.45 I aim to get to the pub c.9.30, and have a route that should enable this :smiley_cat:

I look forward to seeing you this evening on the ride or at the pub.

See you later

Great ride, great night, good to see so many historic (steric) faces again.
Thanks Tom, great night, I hope I'm as fit as you at 70!

Great night Tom. Thank you and hope you had fun too. Hope I'm still going as well as you are at 70!
