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.

Re: Hinxton this eve!

Ill be out. Nige won't be at the back. That'll be me.

Thought it might be good to get the trail past Chesterford research park in but can't remember how to get there. Anyone any idea?

Re: Hinxton this eve!

Also planning on being out tonight

Re: Hinxton this eve!

I've got the yr6 leaving play this evening, so i'll either need to meet you en route somewhere, or just meet you at the pub.

I think i'll be able to leave Comberton at 7:45, perhaps 8. I guess you'll be heading out the completely opposite direction :-)


Edit: In fact, it might be good to meet with Pete and head there with him !

Re: Hinxton this eve!

I’m intending to ride

Re: Hinxton this eve!

I’ll be out too

Re: Hinxton this eve!

So after been very keen this morning I won't be home until 18
.45 and I'm knackered. So for that reason...... I'm staying in with my new best friend Mr Air Chiller.
Have a nice ride!

Re: Hinxton this eve!

Hi All,

Newb here. Was going to join your ride this evening if that's ok. Been riding a while now but not done anything local and beer afterwards sounds like a great idea.

Thanks,
Adam.

Re: Hinxton this eve!

That's grand. See you at Brookside
