Plenty souls been out - there's just been that much snow.
6"+ on the isle of wight (living up to its name).
Couldn't get in to work this morning (mostly due to apathy, rather than snow), all sorted for a 1pm ride, work managed to get hold of me and lo and behold, spent the rest of the day attached to a PC on the VPN. BASTIDS!
So the ride i organised, i didn't even see. FFS. Haven't ridden in snow for 15 years. Not that im annoyed you understand.
AAARRGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! 👿 👿 👿
Some pics of the trails on the 7 stanes blog.
Llandegla looks like it might be open soon then.......

We were in work at Llandegla today, as well as the 2-3feet of snow lying on solid ice there will be considerable drifts on the top of the climb trail conditions are dangerous as the weight of snow has bought tress and branches down. Conditions are such a survey of the damage hasn't been conducted yet.
btw that's me with my little 'un.
Hoping for much slipprey roads tomorrow... shan't risk taking a FWD Transit van out round the hills and lanes of West Somerset/North Devon..
So,,, maybe MTB up on the "Tox" at some time 😆
