Anyone been out in the white stuff then?

Did Cannock Chase yesterday. Started snowing about 30mins before I got there, but there was a good covering by the time i'd finished. Brilliant fun!

Yep. Went out this morning but nowhere near the amount of snow as in your pics. Did have a couple of tricky descents though with the rear wheel trying to overtake the front!

Also ended up with a broken gear cable....

Nope, pissed off as it was the first weekend in ages where I could race the sat and get out for a good ride sunday, and it sodding snowed! Does god not know I've got my first race in 6 weeks!

Yes went out for 2 hours and my first time with clip ins on a bike 2 big cream ins but what a hoot.

[Watchman]

No - had it all planned too. Got the MTB all sorted with puncture resistant kevlar liners, and a pair of super bright Magicshine lights on the handlebars all ready/charged.

Then I crashed my car on Tuesday so that's in shop now and I have no way to get to my cycle route start.

Yep

[Fluffsri]

Nope, as quick as it arrived it went. 3"s on Sat night and all gone by 0800 Sunday morning

Done a lap of Cannock this, no snow but ice, 6 times I came off my first real xc with clip ins, emotional but great fun.

Loads of people on CX bikes in Epping Forest last weekend.

Just got back from 90 mins on the moors. Feck me it was hard work. It was a foot deep in most places so you were limited to landrover tracks where the keepers had been. Some of the dh was exceptionally hairy - the choice was deep snow with little control or ruts that suddenly became ice. Even my dogs with built in crampons were struggling for grip.

Still it justifies the intake of calories whilst watching the England game in the pub.

Clumber Park to Sherwood Pines. A lap of the red route & a coffee then back to clumber. No grip in Pines but great fun. 35miles & a touch over 3hours. Today is a Wattbike day.

me, today.

I like running and am training for a half marathon. Training is going ok, but I don't like running in the snow.

I cycle to work and hate it. Cycling is for puffs and should be banned. But because I didn't want to run on ice I needed to do something, so I jumped on my bike for an hours cycling and quite enjoyed it.





I feel dirty now.

Hope you're not too sore, Tom!

Tried out my new Evo8 today in Epping, great fun no mud!

Last Sunday 8am on the Dog, was great till the rear dérailleur hanger cracked and dropped the lot in amongst the spokes. The good thing though it's spurred me on to buy a new better bike.

Was out during the snow last week and was caught out a few times riding on fresh snow on top of ice
