Sort of, can't change how it appears at moment as lunch hour overrun by 45 mins already and as I'm the boss better set a good example and at least look like I'm working

Hope our mileage rivals in Victoria haven't been too badly hit, seems the flooding is getting worse there. Link to ABC report.

Our snow was a minor problem compared to this lot.

Thanks Davidc. Most of the forum people are in Melbourne which wasn't badly hit, unlike the north west. The agriculture losses from the floods will be huge though - and they come after a decade of drought. But it's not nearly as bad here as Qld. We now have a forecast of 40C for Sunday though, which is interfering with riding plans a bit.

A question for those of you riding on ice - are these spills with nobbies or slicks or studs (or maybe all)?

On Ice studded tyres are best, then slicks (the wider the better) & then knobblies. On thin layers of snow small block knobblies at highish pressures seem to be the best option.

Mine was on slicks. The studded tyres seem to work very well on ice. Since I've got them I have ridden on roads I couldn't stand up on. Thankfully it's warmed up a bit recently though as I found my studded tyres (Scwalbe Snow Studs) heavy and slow.

Thanks for the info. It must be quite tricky, judging whether there's ice under the snow etc or whether to just ride whatever's on the bike at the time. Bit of a novelty for most of us. Stay safe.

It seems to be broken at the moment.

I'd be fascinated to know what a catchable fatal error is!

Working again for me as well. A catchable fatal error sounded funny though - some sort of new computer disease to superseed the virus and worm!

Only 5 miles needed now to exceed last January's total.

A trip into town brings my January total to the same as last years. Need to get more in if I'm going to meet my 2011 target.

Since I didn't do any riding last January I definitely pasted it this year.

What surprised me when I just looked though is that I've done 549* miles this month which is more than I did in any other month last year.
Now I just need to keep that up for the rest of the year.


*plus today's commute
