I can't believe Richard had so many loose bolts on his M-check. Another essential bit of kit might be some loctite! :-P

#GMBN, I have made it a habit to do a “post ride bike and kit check”. That way, tomorrow I can just get on my bike and ride!!!

Rich is definitely the person I would go to for MTB insight.

Hey there just wondering if you guy’s are still going to post on YouTube after Discovery sports takes you on.

[xerocrashious]

Check that someone knows where you're riding and when you're due back. Safety first!

[psalm]

Just would add to bring a basic first aid kit. Just in case 🙄

[Allison_Burgers]

Heard so many horror stories of stem bolts coming loose while on descent 💀

[Montblanc]

They have really ran out of things to do videos on
