Some times I think I should keep my mouth shut! I suppose you will all expect me to ride tomorrow just to show how it is done (no overtaking is allowed and I am off number 1)!!! Rick
Well I was mountain biking over Bredon,three hours in the saddle and great fun to boot! It was about -5 at the top with a couple of inches of snow,but the air was that clear you could see for miles,absolutly breathtaking.
Is everyone going soft - in 1981 there was 6 inches of snow on the A38 but we still went to the Railway at Ripple for lunch the week before Christmas and rode the boxing day 10 though I think most of the snow had cleard by then.
Myself and Dave W were either brave or just stupid for attempting to go out this morning for a usual Sunday ride. Fortunately we had a brain wave and decided we were better off by turning around and going home. This afternoon I again attempted to go out and went round to Pirton /Norton TT circuit Basically if the weather is anything like today on Saturday- we best all just go to the Ketch unless we all like meeting up in A&E . My temp gauge was showing +2.5 but the roads were still 50% covered in ice. Hope the weather changes over the next few days so at least we can build up a thirst before going to the Ketch- although there doesnt look to be any let up. Hope to see a few of you on the 26th.
