Default Sv skidoo

I rode the 60 miles to tunbridge wells and back this evening to take my son out for his 5th birthday pizza!!!

It started snowing about 10 miles from tunbridge Wells but seemed to ease off once I got there. On the way back it was a veritable blizzard right from t/wells through to 5 Ashes and the roads were actually white with snow and extremely slippery. Kept it upright but scared myself silly. Next year he can come to me!!!

All this after telling Coolgirl the other day that I definitely won't be riding in snow!!!

You can get your knee down on a skidoo.

True, only I didn't know until we were skiing last year, I'd hired skidoos several times before, but for some reason it had never ocurred to me to try, when I found out that it could be done, I spent the rest of the time annoying everyone by going round in circles, spraying rooster tails of snow at them and generally f*cking around. Great
