Bring it on. I've just fitted a set of Avon Ice Touring tyres to Mrs Gti's Ibiza:

The winter tyres we had on her C1 were just mind-bogglingly good.

Sniff did an amusing though actually quite accurate [url= http://sniffpetrol.com/2012/12/05/oh-my-god-were-all-going-to-die/ ]article last month[/url]

Should the temps drop sufficiently to freeze the slop then I might consider swapping to the MTB for the cross country commute. No showers and clothes drying facilities at work make getting covered in mud on the way in an impractical option.

Last time I drove in the snow was in the States where we had a 3 hour night time drive in a snow storm. Absolutely no problems driving in a boggo standard hire car. Wider roads and more familiarity with the conditions obviously help the locals.

Oh well, as you were.

It's started to spit. Now I don't know if I need a waterproof FFS. I'm going to eek out the last few minutes at home before I meet the club at 8.30
