So the sun was shining and I was sat in the office looking forward to the nice fast ride home...
5 minutes later and god has dumped a crap load of snow on the ground outside, for a few minutes I could barely see the cars parked right outside :shock:
So not I have a lovely slow (and slippery) fun ride home on my slick tyres
Anyone else been caught out like this today?

and I use Head and Shoulders so there is none! :evil:Chunky Cyclists need your love too! :-)

Had the same here at lunchtime in Bicester. Blazing sunshine, followed by an ominous black cloud looming from over the way then a huge white-out, now back to blazing sunshine. No sign of that there snow now and the sky's as clear as a bell from where I sit..0

A few dandruffy flakes here in Liverpool, beneath the blue skies and sunshine. Go figure.0

I'm between Tower Bridge and Monument, say some about 5 mins ago but it seems to have stopped. Going to leave in about 20 mins so hope it stays off.
