Decent ride this morning. The aroma of the bacon was too much on the way home though....

Nice collection of Enduros/ SX's there.
I did about 5 miles this evening and the snow had turned to slush there was no grip anywhere I was all over the place. It wasn't ideal conditions to be testing the new bike.
I had no falls but my brother had some comedy ones especially as it was his first time on SPDs.

These pics posted on another thread but here again. Was round Austwick/Clapham. Very crappy low down but clear, blue, calm up on the tops. A fantastic day.

Tracker1972 - the snow was melting, so quite sloppy if you stayed out if the white stuff.

Great pics! Thanks!
Have none from our Sunday morning ride in North Norfolk but can second perfect conditions, a good work-out and nice handling training.
Virgin snow was still dry and powdery, neither icy nor slushy, giving good grip and this nice creaky noise, while providing the magic carpet ride feel and muted atmosphere that only fresh snow can provide.
It helps to know the trails but lower speed makes even snow-covered obstacles less of an issue while everything is cushioned anyway. And the bike stayed clean throughout the whole ride!

That's some frost - honest!
