I've just got home, and can honestly say, that was a horrible 25 minute commute - very cold stinging rain, freezing cold hands (the cat is typing this for me) feet and face.

Might take the car tomorrow

If you are riding, rmember to stuff a bunch of newspapers inside your jacket, it makes you so much warmer, and stop if you are getting cold and cant concentrate. I stopped twice and did a little dance at the roadside to warm up and warmed my hands on the frame
I now have pictures in my head of you dancing like a pixie, next to your bike, with bits of newspaper sticking out of your riding gear.

It's giving me a giggle. Thanks!

Ride from Waheybridge to Kingston Hosp was very cold and snowy. I do think it managed to wash the roadsalt off the bike though. Result!

The bike wasn't liking the cold much- thumping more than purring today. And I'd just got her running sweet!

V-Power and FST in the engine though- no knocking and no carb icing. I've planned to get into work tomorrow about 7:30-8. Hope it's not too icy.
