This Weather Concerns me

[Tharg2007]

looks like it will be dry but cold tomorrow morning so will be taking the bob jackson to work. Not got any mudguards yet so any sign of wet will mean the geared bike.

Be safe out there, follow your instincts, there will be plenty of fine days for cycling later in the year.

 

[Tharg2007]

its not the ice or cold we need to look out for, its the dopey drivers that have spent the last two weeks in front of celeb bb and other cack dumbing them down as well as fattening up ready to run us all over tomorrow as they trundle allong half asleep in their metal beds.

I've done four commutes this year.This morning was the coldest.My fingers turned to ice.Ride back was a warm 37 degrees apparently.

At least it is not raining.

Amen to that!

It's back to the Old Kent Road(A2)for me on Tuesday.
A bastard of a 10min journey vs motons, buses and potholes, plus it's too short a distance to really get warmed up.

Have a feeling the next thing on my 'must buy' kit will be silk glove liners and thermal socks!

first day back tomorrow after a two week reat with an extra half stone odd

ice is the only worry but I noticed they've been gritting lately around here

[Euan Uzami]

I mean where are you? Scotland?

 

[snorri]

I mean where are you? Scotland?

It's going to be fine in my area, a top wind speed of 9 mph will not cause any rough seas or spray, so no danger of the rigging icing up tomorrow

One does wonder about use of the word "severe".

 

[Euan Uzami]

I mean where are you? Scotland?

nope england. east midlands.

Something about snow sleet or icy roads.
