Loaded the bike in the back of car, the wife was gunna drop me off so i could ride home in the snow, again, its good fun.
Got 100m down the road to top of the hill we live on. Selected first gear nice and slow all going well. then stared to slide. Braking and steering didnt make a blind bit of difference. So just let it slide, Im not to scared a this point. Slide across the road heading for a wall Im getting a little tense. Hit the kerb spun sidwards now heading for a parked car, stress levels rapidly rising.
All this accompanied by the wife making a very annouying noise that I take meant she wasnt impressed.
Stopped just before hitting the other car. It was that close couldnt even open the door to get out. Took a little bit of time to get the car back on thr road it just kept on spinning. At this point decided to abandon any chance of getting to work. Walked home and Im now wondering if its worth getting the bike and going for a spin?
Anyone else had a close call?
rubbish for riding though - and at time of press the snow hasn't got here either but the cloud is getting to that flat solid colour that usually brings snow.
