Of course! Do you think it would work on the roads?

A few flakes of snow here as well as being chilly, I'm hoping the weather is going to be warmer again later in the week when I'm off shift...what happened to that weather a couple of weeks ago when the sun was shining and it was actually warm??

For those that are angry about the presence of gritters, spare a thought for how you would feel if the gritters hadn't been out, and both you & your bike were sliding down the road sideways tomorrow.

PMA.

Having nice weather with grit on the floor is much much better than working nights & having nice weather in the daytime. Trust me.

Is there any other kind?

I wish our gritters were out that quick. We have 30 cm forcast tonight and you won't see a sander or plow until its too late

With the amount of grit they put down up here at least its not far off behaving like ice theres definatly enough to bring you off put it that way and if it doesent theres still the crap thats gonna end up in my bike

i went out today for a loverly ride, sun shining! but bl@@dy cold!! i wanted to use some of the sides of the bt014's but grit was everywhere!
as baph said tho, better to have grit than ice.

No, Ice melts once the sun comes out!!!

Salt stays for ages, buggers up your bike/car, attracts moisture and turns to a sticky horrible corrosive residue, and is slippy!!!

There was no ice, not even a ground frost!!!!!

Plus, my bike wouldn't be ridden if it was icey, thats a silly idea!!!

I have a car for that!
