Anyone Else Challenge The Bradford Snow?
 
Well what a journey this morning.:confused:
Lots of traffic as soon as I hit the outskirts of Bradford and having to filter in sludge to get anywhere! :rolleyes:

I had a moment on the approach to a roundabout where I changed down to 1st and hit a big patch of sludge which sent the back wheel all over the place. :o

Got to the car park at work to find it covered in around 3/4inches of snow and the cars had compacted it all into the tarmac. Assulted it in 1st gear with both my feet on the floor and it was actually quite fun going sideways on a motorbike. I was going soo slow that when I got to the speed bump I could not get over it as my back wheel was just spinning, after about 10mins bouncing away I managed to get myself to my parking spot. :cheers:

Looking forward to the journey home :p

Cheers I will do my best. I might just sit in traffic after the losing all grip on back wheel moment

pulled the car up the drive with my tractor as the snow was deep fine, drove to dewsbury no snow and sat in traffic for an hour, 2 hours to do 12 miles!
