Hello peeps
Could not resist the lure of the snow and have just had a couple of hours round Danbury. Hard work but well worth it 
Three things I learned today.
Snow = understeer - many bends were missed as I ploughed straight on with no front wheel grip 
Snow on branches makes them hang lower due to the extra weight - that extra weight also makes for bigger slaps in the face 
even when hidden by snow; roots ruts and logs are roots ruts and logs 
now I am ready for a BIG breakfast

| Carnage in Camden that's for sure. Plus I was overtaking cars and you got to love that!Although the canal path was worse on the way back..all icy, and I kept drifting left, towards the water...brrrr.Must wear the warmer gloves though. |
