It was -9 and ice was forming on my gloves :shock: :lol:

A beautiful morning and a delight to be out in the fresh, crisp clear air :D

Another one from me today... This time me and my shadow out on a great bike ride... The image was grabbed from my bike video camera...

Despite the thermometer saying 1 degree and my Garmin saying it felt like -4 degrees when wind chill is taken into consideration, it felt positively balmy in the glorious sunshine :D

A most excellent ride along two of our TT courses...

I did wonder if you'd go for a run this morning, it was minus 7 at 6am when I left for work.

It takes more than a bit of cold (or wet) to stop me running Ryan ;) Usually, if I don't it's because I'm either injured (thankfully rare) or I'm too ill. Covid is known to make me ill enough...

She's just like me, rapidly regressing into her second childhood :) :lol:

I often use things intended for children and as is well known, I eat from children's menus when dining out :)

Keeps us big kids young ;)

It is frozen solid and the standing water is frozen hard enough to skate on!

I ran 5 miles around it without getting my shoes even slightly wet or muddy :shock:

All the mud has turned to concrete :lol:

As I have posted on the significant mileage thread here I had to pop down to the charity warehouse where I was surprised to see our opposite neighbours were having a meeting in their unit. Bearing in mind ours is a charity unit I think I may see if they would like to donate!! :-D
