20f RIDE ON ICE

Just had to get out today but all the mates I invited decided to stay in bed. But thermal vest- warm long sleeve jersey- Duvet jacket- and a warm top coat. then the knickers- tights- Ski mask and mittens over thermal gloves and I felt fine. So did Ross but he only put on a warm tracksuit over all the warm clothing he had.

20F when we left home and out to the woods. Plenty of ice on the roads and no problems till we neraly got to them. Ross went over and so did I. The fall shot from the ground is me sitting on my backside while Ross tried to stand up. Not much snow in the woods as it had mostly melted- but with below freezing temps it had turned to ICE---Everywhere. That pic of me on the wide muddy track is not mud. It is Ice.

So Just a few pics of my ride to show that the Mountain bike still has its uses
