Glad you have taken to it Gareth, it’s a lot of money if you didn’t!

Remember Rule 1 and don’t take offence if you hear me muttering (on my olde worlde bike) on a climb “bloody e-bikers, always bloody smiling”!

everyone I have encountered on or around the MTB world so far has been great – supportive and helpful, eager to advise on techniques and new routes

You’ll probably need advice on what lights to get. 👍
