Its my first new topic but hey.

Looking at the weather for the next 36 hours it looks like RAIN. It started here (Hexhamshire) just over 24 hours ago and has not eased up.


I have booked this weekend off work and arranged not to have child so i could enjoy a ride or two so here is a list of maybe takes in case i need them

Snorkal
Life Jacket
Flares
Bouys

I have thought about expanding foam in the frame too.

Anyone else thinking about extreme measures or aborting due to severe weather

    Be careful about ripping up those trails though eh. Sometimes it's better to stay at home - but it depends on how well your local trails drain.
    You only need two tools: WD40 and Duck Tape.
    If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
    If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.
