Which Nutters cycled in then......?

[cyberknight]

Glad i took the car the road i commute on was as bad as my side road, know a few that did not even attempt it in a car .

Slippy slippy slippy today.

Cycled to work, then mid morning took the works van up to the factory and parked in front of another van there. Got out, spent 2 hours setting up computers and fax machines, came back out and the van I had parked 2 feet in front of was now parked in my drivers door.

He hadn't been out or moved the van, it had just slid its own way down the (quite slight) slope all of its own accord (handbrake fully on)

0.5C above freezing so out came the road fixie & most of the heavy fleeced gear got left at home. A bit of snow on the side roads but nice clear roads on my route so easy on the corners & sprint out of them like a whippet

Not me - got a chest lurgy. I couldn't have worked anyway yesterday due to all the snow. Gutted.

I wondered why you were so quiet.

Rode in today. Roads clear, and weather even a little bit warm.

The only difference was that everything that was not road or on it is white.

No excuses for tomorrow.

providing that my bike is ok after falling off twice on saturday i will be back on it today.

Cycled in!

Had to walk out to a main road, and took it easy esp. in the corners.

Didn't even mind that were temporary traffic lights and some side roads closed.

Fingers crossed that the snow doesn't make it all the way to West London tonight.

Roads seem much worse today on the side roads as they start to melt. So I haven't cycled so far - might go out later though.

I managed door to door this morning as my road (which is well off the main road) was clear. Took it easy and am still being very cautious on corners but all good so far. Better safe than sorry I reckon.

 

[BrumJim]

That's more like it, you big girl.

Well, Martin didn't ride in. Try calling him a big girl.

Also I only have a road bike with semi-slicks.

And a bad sense of balance.

And a load more pathetic excuses like that stored up....

Side roads were a nightmare! I had to walk/slide to the main road (luckily it wasn't too far). The thaw is revealing the underlying ice, which with a layer of water in it is very hard to walk safely on, never mind cycle.

I really do feel sorry for older and frailer people in this weather.

 

[BrumJim]

I know. I was only joking.

I'm not: You are.

Don't let it worry you, I'm doing alright.

Little bit more snow overnight and they're back out this morning, going really slow, holding up the traffic, wobbling all over the place. I had to overtake them in the face of oncoming traffic- they could've caused an accident.

Not many in this morning.

 

[BrumJim]

Bottled it again this morning - thick snow on pavements, and even main roads are rather slushy.

Monday - car.
Tuesday - Bicycle
Wednesday - Train.

Thursday? How about bus?
