The current forecast on the BBC doesn't seem to be predicting rain or snow for the Glasgow area tomorrow, so (gloved) fingers crossed for Saturday!

Met Office is positively sunny for Friday now, and dry still for Saturday. Temperature is now up another notch as well at -3°C - I'm not even sure I'll need a jacket at this rate!

I'm getting a bit concerned that I might actually have to ride this ... - err, sorry

Was out for 30 miles today, very cold, icy roads and snow on the hills.

 

[Scoosh]

I don't do icy roads ... ... been there, fallen off

Didn't bounce.

My chain broke this morning at Queens Park. Pushed bike into work and now need to see what damage is after a coffee

Unlucky! Not only was I visited by the fairy whose merest mention elicits screams of terror, I broke a spoke. Outside Queen's Park.

I still hope to be out on Saturday. I will keep my fingers crossed that the snow stays away and will check here on saturday morning that the rides not been cancelled.

with all the 'mechanicals ' you guys seem to be having I think I will bring a few extra spares just incase its catching

I will be driving over from Falkirk / polmont area is anyone else in my area ? Could offer a lift to some one plus their bike. Where would the best place to park be at that time on a saturday. I dont know Glasgow well at all.


Till Saturday
