Supposed to be riding ladybower today. Travelling up from nottingham but it's pissing it down here. Is there snow in them there peaks and how bad is it?
in the white peak it is ahem - white!! about 1-2" all over and snowing like ****
i live on't edge o' peak district, 8 miles from ladybower.
2inches and coming down quite quickly.
i'm going to eat toast,
its not even proper snow, just slush here in Sheffield. would make for grim riding
podge; the alpine climate of crookes is hard at work again.
toast: peanut butter? / marmite? / honey? / blackcurrant jam?
tea or hot chocolate?
Cheers guys. The A619 was blocked out of chesterfield by lorries that gave up but after we turned around and found another route it, it was a really good ride. Hard work and slow going but there's something live about riding in those conditions and surviving.
Adam, considering I can pretty much see your house from mine I'm always surprised by the difference in climate. Leeds however had it worse than us, I ended up trying to do handbrake turns outside ikea
