Some really nice pic's there, looks like a great place to ride too.

What camera are you using? I'm hoping it's a compact..... I've been looking for a compact to take out on rides as taking a DSLR is a pain and expensive to wreck if I decide to take a really close look at a trail....

Yes, a compact. Nothing special, an ageing Nikon Coolpix P1, which is 8 megapixels I think. It's takes an age to start up and take a pic. Recently found it at the bottom of the cupboard, so started taking it out on rides again. Keep my DSLR for special occasions ๐Ÿ™‚

Trailrakers! Don't they make fantastic snow tyres? I found that out yesterday - never thought I'd be able to recognise tyres from a photo... Lovely pics.

Well spotted! I put them on a couple of weeks ago for a wet South Downs group ride, and they're pretty good in the snow. Will prob leave them on now. Only had to get off and walk once - on a silly-steep climb that is touch and go at the best of times.

Very nice. Hoping the snow won't all disappear into a slushy mush with the rain that's forecast for Hampshire.

Loving the photos

Taff, yeah, we're not too far from you, and the thaw has started today. Supposed to be cold again tomorrow though, so Christmas shopping today and biking tomorrow for me.

Looking through that camera and found this. Takes pretty decent pics. This was a hoar frost on a Cannock Chase ride years back (2005 according to the camera).
