Earlier it was just wet and manky; it's actually stopped raining now. If it's going to snow it hasn't started yet...

I went flying on the overflow car park at birches valley this morning; it was totally covered in lumpy ice, my wheels were going sideways more than they were forwards! Bonkers it was, and I bet it's worse now... 🙂

we were riding til late last night, it was just a bit of frozen drizzle stuff, nowt to shout about. it has however rained early this morning and instantly frozen, roads and paths are treacherous. If you are venturing out, go full Dog Soldier stylee, pads etc, you will come off. 🙂

dazz do you ride in the park often, I was going to go out there last night but the wine was too tempting. Hoping for a slippy hour this evening.

Oh and the lack of snow was severely disappointing! 🙁
