Super cold .. 🥶    But a joy to ride.

I’d stopped here to warm my hands on the barrels before the last few miles.

Don’t forget to put your gloves on the exhaust while your hands are warming on the barrels. Great pix by the way.

I have no inclination or need to ride my bikes in these temps now. I remember the times when I had to and 365 days a year was my normal. From the age of 16 to 40, that was the only option I had as I wouldn’t buy a second car.

I admire anyone who voluntarily rides in temps under 21 Celsius 😂 How soft am I now!!

Hats off to anyone still putting rubber on the road

I’ve only just bought it and got it running again - so I couldn’t resist a sunny day, whatever the temperature! 😂
