(and also PSA and safety announcement)
Our rides take advantage of the lovely lanes we have nearby, but we can't control the condition of the roads. Wet leaves, mud and gravel on the roads, puddles and potholes, narrow lanes and traffic - there is a greater potential for accidents.
Call out obstacles and hazards.
Leave yourself enough time to react to any issues that happen ahead of you - leave more of a gap on downhills.
Try and avoid heavy braking and call out when slowing.
