Snow and Ice - great biking fun

24 January 2007 09:37

The ride into work this morning was Snowy and Icy. This is the first time I have ridden in these conditions and I was a little bit scared but it turns out that all the main roads were completely clear of anything slippery which just left my own road and the road leading up to work which needed to be driven over very carefully.

On the way in, I didn't overtake a single car even though the roads were clear enough just in case there might be some ice around. I also made sure I had a jumper on under my coat and a scarf on but when I reached work I realised that I had forgotten my wooly hat and gloves so if I do breakdown or come off it could be a very cold wait for rescue.

I think tonight might be a tougher journey because we are forecast more snow and the roads should be very slushy by then.
