10th January: 31.14 miles - Delayed start due to the risk of black ice, wrapped up in ridiculous numbers of layers and took it very easy to be extra safe, but did enough to get my account open for the year - https://www.strava.com/activities/17001970933 - 1 point
17th January: 62.44 miles - Very wet ride out to Bicester and back including a number of detours and/or U-turns due to numerous flooded roads; some of them however I ploughed through regardless - https://www.strava.com/activities/17083307302 - 3 points

Total so far: 4 points
