You have got to be joking. It was absolutely freezing this morning. If they hadn't shrunk so much they would have been frozen to the tank

. - And I nearly came off, the bike that is( I mean *really nearly*) round a tight right hander at about 30 to find 10m of ice. The whole lot went sideways, I had it on full lock and just prayed. I know it was serious because the cage behind me stopped ready to pick me up off the floor. Luckily the ice ran out before the road did and I managed to stay on when everything gripped again.

Not exactly perfect riding weather but a damn sight better than the recent arctic conditions.

Mrs Fud get ready spring is about to be sprung
