Wish this cold snap would go away,it means we can not ride this week due to the slippery ground.I can remember the last time we rode in these conditions .It was dangerous and it was nerve wrecking as we tried to avoid icy puddles.To add to it we had a dog go for Butch and Fiona decided it was good idea to bolt on ice and get away from these awful scary animals.The took flight down the lane ,how we never slipped I do not know.side by side they raced manically refusing to stop until I was so exasperated I said "for god sake stop will you!" and with that they both stopped and we turned round walked past the dog (now on a lead) and we stopped to chat to the owner.We would ride in snow ,which is not so bad but you can not do much ,but ice is a no,no,its not worth the risk.So I am hoping the cold snap will end soon ,like next week.
