Bloody lightweights,I just got home from tonights commute and it was a bit mellow and not as bad as I expected.

The usual suspects were around,boy racers and rain.

All the snow has gone, so I thought. Cut down this lane today to find it blocked with a couple of feet of (icy) snow in places. Walked through a muddy field in my SPD-SLs to get past it all, couldn't get them clipped in after until I'd immersed my feet in a large puddle to get the mud off. Rode 15 miles with wet feet.

Nice and warm today though. No other troubles except whopping great potholes everywhere.

Not unless you are under five with a pink Barbie bike LOL !!!! I'm afraid it's only walkers allowed in there.Tatton is good for bikes but you still have to watch for cars driving through the estate.

Ah that's me out then,though I do ride like a girl at times:biggrin:
Been to Tatton a few times now it's a nice place to go on the bike,just in my range to 20 miles or so round trip(with a few laps of the park)
Looking OK for tomorrow now,hybrid's coming out to play.

No chance this morning.
Had a light dusting last night at about 7pm ish but then overnight another fair amount. The main roads are still under snow and a big lorry was stuck on the hill on the main road so the traffic now will be crazy.
Luckily I still set my alarm early for bike time so got into work at 7.20am
