[QUOTE=tsl;10169627This is a great pic to use over in the Winter Cycling forum for the people who ask if knobbies are good for ice.

Uh, no. Get studs.

Glad you had fun and didn't break anything![/QUOTE]

For the one day a year when we could get weather like this- I should have had more sense and stayed in bed. But it was great to get out and match your skills to the elements. The pic must show that I am still a mountain biker at heart.

The mad dogs didn't appear and not many people about either----Except when I fell. Then it seemed as though they crawled out of the woodwork. No nurses though and no blood.
