morning all .....I wish it was still last night

Allegedly 2 deg here feeling like -2.

I have risen!

Been up for a while and walked Muttley already. Busy today. Mini D has gymnastic lessons, and I have a Hospital appointment in Luton, of all places. If I get out of hospital alive I'll probably be stabbed and ravished by hillbillies.

That will put a few miles on your Volvo, good.

I don't understand people who go riding their bikes in those temperatures. It is 0 degrees outside, no good for cycling, no matter how you wrap up.

Good morning - I am up and dressed. I might have a shave later. That's as far as plans go at the moment.

Have the best day possible.

Morning all, a tropical 3 degrees here and the frost is melting in the sunlight.
Last nights gig was a great event. Steve Hackett played some of his solo stuff in the first set, and then Selling England By The Pound in it's entirety. And then finished off with Los Endos from Wind and Wuthering. Truly worth seeing if you are a fan of Genesis and Prog rock in general.

Our air ambulance looks nice in the frosty sun. Should be a yellow one but it must be away for servicing. They seem to get this red one while it’s away. https://perthairport.co.uk/general-...GjfUddH6KQuOIjvEQQm0R8Ai2UDKNBPT6yIQt-IoXIXbk

I set of at 9.00 when it was 1C but we got up to 5C by 11.00. I have to disagree re wrapping up. My feet were a bit chilly for the first hour or so other than that I toasty all ride.

Bib longs, base layer, summer shirt, gilet, winter jacket. We were moving at 19-22mph most of the time.

The average temperature of my ride yesterday was 4 degrees but the scenery was glorious. Well worth the effort.

Off out doggie walking followed by shopping in a mo.
Got some gardening and lawn mowing to do later.

Rode to work in a still air temperature of -15°C. Very little traffic on the roads.

I'm in Ullesthorpe with a coffee and a sausage batch, first ride this week, a short one staying as main road as possible, but even some of the main roads are frosty.
