The short rise in temperatures came to an end today and despite riding in conditions as low as -4 whilst working in the City, I'd already decided, that as I'm now riding out in the countryside, that I wouldn't ride if there was a hard frost on the ground. As far as I'm concerned, that's a little too risky as I could easily be caught out by black ice or some such slippery freak of nature. As a result, today I was back in the car.
However, yesterday was a much better day and it proved to be yet another nice day to and from work on two wheels. I took the two pics below at lunchtime and hopefully they'll give you some idea of just how filthy the roads are down here at the moment. The bike was clean three days ago.

OKay, so maybe in the grand scheme of things its not that bad, but to be honest, I didnt have a huge amount to say. Oh, but before I forget, I picked up my Christmas present/congrats for a new job present to myself yesterdayy. So here, still in bits are my new Ducabike SBK rearsets. Massive thanks as always to Steve at Conquest Carbon www.conquestcarbon.co.uk. When I have a bit of time and when the garage is a fraction warmer, I'll get them on the bike.
