Trail Time!
Some of you might recognize the trail, its the one we used for the poker run a few years ago.
Pigs can’t fly but fat bastards can
If you buy a good bike that can handle and stop you won’t crash so much
Don’t think any body armour can stop broken or dislocated shoulders its just an injury that can happen very easily in our sport, broken leg probably the same problem, boots and knee braces don’t stop the leg from snapping sideways the way yours did.
If you spend too much on protection you will be mowing the lawn in it because she won’t let you spend anymore on a bike.
I have good boots but have still hurt my ankle and feet in them, cheap body armour that stops roost and elbow grazes, knee pads (which have saved my knees from heaps of bruises) and a good comfy helmet.
Even with the best gear money can buy shit can still happen, but if that what it takes to be allowed to get back out riding without getting a divorce I would buy every piece of protection available.
I did 110kms in a 2 hr cross country recently, but I once only did 3kms in about 2 hrs, so i guess my riding has been pretty diverse
No adventure riding though 👿

All I reckon he is their for is to keep the group together, or unofficially inform the group on the go that everyone has caught up
Unless you are on a paid ride he doesn’t,t have. To fix your bike
Occasionally lending a hand to someone who is wastedAs for roosting if he is a mate you can do what you like,until he tells you what he really thinks ,or leaves you on the side of the track (depending on what his mrs looks like)
If he’s not a mate at least introduce yourself first :laugh: ,
If his bike is orange there are no rulesThe sweep is obviously at the back all day , if he can,t work out that it’s coming from the tyre In front of his face and avoids it , Maybe he should be riding for a latte
There is a lot of unintentional roost out there, some people some bikes throw more
Most people ride off as soon as they see them, before they get there anywayOn the corner it may be better if you didn’t roost anyone intentionally, unless its that bloke that you really despise
On the trail if your behind someone its fair game ,unless your electing them to help you on the next hill
suck it up boony you princess all you have done by posting this thread was put a target on your chest/face
:laugh:I’ll summarise Bobs answer
Yes its ok to roost the sweep and anyone else on the ride including the leader! :laugh:
