⚠️ Small part… BIG safety risk ⚠️

This is why bar end plugs are so important.

As you can see here, this grip has worn through and the bar end is now exposed 👇
That might not seem like a big deal… but in a crash, that open handlebar can act like a cookie cutter 😬

We’ve seen (and heard of) some nasty injuries caused by this.

✅ Bar end plugs:

* Protect you in a crash
* Stop grips sliding off
* Keep your bike looking tidy

They cost next to nothing, take seconds to fit, and could save you a serious injury.

👉 If your grips are worn or plugs are missing, get them sorted ASAP.

Pop into M Check Cycles and we’ll get you sorted 👍

Love seeing this 🙌

Big respect to all the marshals putting the work in 👏
And a special shoutout to our own Shelly from M Check Cycles getting involved 🙌

Proper effort from everyone at the Grizedale Funduro 👊

👏 Massive thank you to all of our amazing marshals and volunteers! 👏

These events simply wouldn’t happen without the people giving up their time to stand out on the stages all day helping keep riders safe and the event running smoothly 🌲🚵

From early starts to long days trackside — we really appreciate every single one of you.

Our chief Marshal Hutch for helping setting up the stages 🙌

Thank you for being part of the Grizedale Funduro team ❤️

Today’s gift: Muscle Rub & Balm… which is perfect, because apparently I now creak more than my bike.
KMC really said, “Here you go mate, you’re basically an old man now” 😂
