    For the first time since passing my bike test two years ago I opted not to ride to work today (last night on the way home was a little bit too "twitchy" for comfort)

    You need cotton pants, that will sort you problem out.

    Weather wise very icy on the roads down here been a few bad accidents locally temps between -2 up to 4 last few days. Trucks been in 4wd permanently at 0500 going to work very slippery, we've had sleet showers and light snow is forecast for the next few days, not getting to excited about it we never get enough down here

    Oh don't get me started --

    Been snow lying here over a foot since before xmas - now getting to the annoying stage

    Snowing here again today plus strong winds - A9 closed North and South for the time being. Routes to the east and west a bit dodgy as well.
    Can't get to Skye -- drifting snow on both routes around 8 inches since yesterday so I guess I will just have to work from home

    They reckon this is on for the next week as well Ochone, ochone, just have to fasten down the hatches for a while
