Just a quick hello from a lycra loving roadie who has just pulled the trigger on a second hand ridgeback mx4. Looking forward to going out and getting amongst the woods and tracks of cannock chase and the forest of dean.

Any advice you dirty beggers can offer would be great.

Wish me luck!
Pain is a momentary lapse of character.

    Don't wear too much lycra, people will think you're an expert.

    Stop shaving your legs.

    Try smiling all roadies look like they have raging piles.

    Crash regulary roadies avoid crashing at all costs, MTBers boast about it and put gory pictures on Face.

    Eat cake and drink beer its allowed in MTBiking.

    Remember the saddle is mostly an ornament, it is not designed for sitting on (much) when on a trail......
