Ahh, not so bad then Chris. I slid onto my backside going out to the shed earlier, then couldn't get the doors open for five minutes because they've swelled so much

Not having a good day then fellas.

Glad nobodies come to any harm. Lucky you had already taken off the Street Extreme can though surely Drew.

As for YC. How can you possibly tell if there was no damage to your ratter

Some people don't have a choice, Mr Lou doesn't drive, so it's his only way of getting to work.

I don't drive so I turn to pedal power (icy days are FANTASTIC on a mountain bike)

Drew, good man not letting the weather put you off. Shame you succumbed, but at least damage is minimal.

Well, the roads were even worse today getting away from our estate, but, least this time I was aware and I pootled out at walking pace with both feet down.....was not fun. But, once I got on the main road all was happy.

Jolly good Drew, at least one good things come out of this: it can all be put down in the nice big book of experience
