So lets get this straight
| Quote: | | She's recently started a new mountain bike group for riders aged 35+ |
But in the same paragraph
| Quote: | | age is not important |
Now I'm confused.
Further down the page
| Quote: | | Epping Social Mountain Bike Riders |
Little bit further down
| Quote: | | Don't be misled by the word 'social' |
Help I'm even more confused now.
Think that website could do with a bit of a re-write preferably by a non schizophrenic!! |

Still not sure Emily, have you read the rules and regulations and signed the disclaimer?
Maybe you could get some false ID made up? |

Anyone of sound mind and body, would certainly not be up for hurtling through the singletrack anyhow! 
Oh, but then they don't attempt anything remotely technical.
And i've certainly never had a full health assessment prior to riding!

...and if you were not of sound mind you wouldn't confirm it because that would be a sound mind thing to do. You'd do the opposite and say you were of sound mind, which means you get to go no matter what.
Catch-22 anyone?
The way to catch out your common-or-garden loon is to have the confirmation read "I am a sausage". They couldn't resist ticking this box...hey presto...you're nicked. |

I was wondering about this post. seemed a bit harsh to turn away someone from a "social ride" based solely on age...
I don't know about anyone else, but I always kind of figured the point of mtn biking was to keep you young... at least that's my hope!
Also seems a bit odd to me to diss another ride:

I HATE that little section of the forest , I've pancaked my wheel there , fallen in horse shite/Mud and fallen in the brambles! |
