One ride............ ONE RIDE !!! That's all I've managed since before Christmas !!!

Heavy snow is forecast for Wednesday, down here. Not amused !! Well, secretly I am, I love it but am dying to get out for a decent ride (no, dogging doesn't count !!)

    Yep combination of illness, injury after being knocked off, baby who doesn't sleep and weather means in 2 months I've done 200miles. I usually average that a week.

    Well, the Met Office may lose their contract for exclusive BBC weather forecasts.
    Make of that what you will. :wink:

    We had a weather alert sent round at work, showing we're going to get 5-10cm of snow. I've looked on all the normal forecast sites since, and all they've got is rain.

    I'd rather have rain tbh!

    They're predicting heavy snow where I am tomorrow too. I've only managed one ride in a month now .... going to try the turbo tonight.

    It's here, and it's settling :(
    It's belting it down, big sticky wet snow falkes and forcast to get heavier today.
    On the plus side it's not settling on the roads or pavements, just everywhere else.
    On the negative side, it's sitting on the road as slush.
    On the plus side, it might rain this afternoon.
    On the negative side, it's going to getheavier until about lunchtime.
    On the plus side, I've never seen rain as a plus !
