There is a bit of ice on the cars this morning and this thing tells me it's -2 out there but i reckon it should soon clear up.

It'll take me so long to get all 17 layers of gear on I'm going whatever the road conditions!

Personally I think that this is a plan B day !!. My concern for today is the temp is not due to rise above 2 degrees, lesser roads will not have been treated and some sections that are in the shadows won't get any sun & will still have ice on them all day.

I reckon we should go for the safer main road routes and have a wee pit stop at Cupar Motorcycles.

I'm iced in, but I've not been on the bike for 2 weeks, so F**K IT.

Currently speed eating some toast then I'm off.

It's a "main roads" day for me.

DEFINATELY!!!

I'm pretty much iced in as well, but im dressed and the bikes loaded so im going, will have to walk the bike down to main road i think (30 mins) so i'm leaving in the next 2.

Glasgow lads, if i'm not at cumbernauld by 9:45 LEAVE, if i'm not going to make it there in time i'll get you at the slip road onto the motorway at Denny. (I'm assuming were going motorway from cumberbauld to kincardine bridge) Youll see me as you come down the hill. Worst case scenario if i'm not there keep going i'll get you at kinross....

It's absolutely lovely here, but it was slippy as **** first thing. So I'm going cycling instead. Hope y'all had a great day!
