No, the one I saw was the on ramp northbound in Guildford near the fire station (180 degree bend going uphill). Looked like it had been closed a long time (no tracks in the snow)

Mine? It's not as bad as Grinch's.

off work today,so went for a little ride in the sun.
Did someone say it was snowing?

I put I bottled it... though I only have to walk to work. LOL Though I could have gone home yesterday and come back today (ready to work tomorrow) but I didnt because I knew the weather was going to be bad, so I guess I did bottle it in a sense.

Maybe I should get a supermoto with noblies on. Oh the FUN.

You need a reliable bike, mate.

Get yourself a Honda.

I was travelling along the M4/M25 to Junction 8 this morning at 6:30 and saw a rider on his Honda doing OK actually, but very surprised to see him out today. Then when I got stuck in the traffic between jct 10/9 on the M25, this guy walks past on his Sachs Racing bike and announced to truckers talking that the battery gave out on his 6 miles back! When the traffic moved again, I saw him just coming up to jct 9, he done very well. I have been told not to go to work tomorrow if it is anyway the same as today, so I have been told, so I wont go in.

We had a fair bit of snow, went for it anyway.

Was a good laugh actually..
The bigger roads I use to get to work... That I assumed would have been gritted well turned out to just be a mixture of slush and compacted snow/ice.
Any thing more than an almost unmeasurable amount of throttle movement, never mind gear changes, resulted in fishtailing it down the road.

I think I'm a bit nuts, I actually like the challenge of it.

+1. The last time I rode on snow I fish-tailed going for an overtake uphill. So I took the beggar on the flat bit at the top.

Nope didn't even open the garage door, the snow is quite deep.

Why I do live on one of the only working train lines As the big boss had gone and used the same line, so did I. Pointless really went in, ate some food, talked and came home.
