Pentlands, February 2009
[img] [/img]

We set off in glorious sunshine...

[img] [/img]

...but it soon began to get grimmer...

[img] [/img]

...as the weather closed in on us.

Pootled around for 3 hours or so in the Golcar, Outlane, Scape, Bolster Moor area of Hudds yesterday.

Todays SPAM Winter Challenge course pre ride. Not too much snow over the Plain, but a good crisp chilly ride.

My planned Dartmoor ride was cancelled today so I rode close to home instead.

Was meant to go over to Sheffield to ride today but decided against it (wisely as it appears) and went for a local ride onto the Lincolnshire Wolds. Freezing (-4), but good.

Found some giant Yule logs

Someone had built these by the road last night - i like their hair 🙂

[url= ]Glentress in the snow - was from last Feb but one of the most amazing and beautiful days riding I have ever experienced[/url]

Took 2x bikes out today for some fun in the snow.
One shod with Bonty ACX and one with Conti Verticals.
Verticals win the grip test; both performed well.
Finally, I find conditions that the Verticals excel at!

See you at the end to end in September, can't promise snow though 😉

Did anyone else's brakes freeze up? My rear caliper got some snow in and then decided it was going to freeze solid. oh well. also have finally found the limits of time atac pedals. they still work, but take a good few stamps and are ok.

An Epic days riding today with good mates. Rained last night, then froze, then snowed. I have never ever ridden in such slippy conditions. Virgin Snow most of the way around.

Bit slushy in Hexham today, so here's one of PMJ's from our trip round the Cairngorms last April:

Went out this evening, I spent as much time pushing cars and riding between drivers in traffic as I actually did riding!

Pictures are rather rubbish, my phone doesn't do low-light.
