AW C'mon thats cheating ragnar, if you didn't get snow then the planets climate would really be screwed up :LOL:

Anyhoo dont you northern types have other cunning and fun ways to get to work such as skis, dog/reindeer sleds, skidoos etc ;)
 
I just got home from riding my full susser a few miles two and from the offie, aided by my bigger dog. He really towed me up the hill, what a lad!!!!!! And that is only a year after he was told he was gonna lose his leg! :)
 
Got 6-9" here :D went out on the bike this afternoon which was great fun but had no brakes due to the snow compacting around the canti's :roll: oh & the rear mech & cassett became a block of ice :LOL:

No snow here in N/W Yorks yet.

Bitterly cold though. I went out for a ride this AM. Frozen mud was welcome after weeks of slop. Working hard kept me warm enough but I had to stop because the freezing air was hurting my lungs. I ended up with my scarf over my mouth but that just makes breathing more difficult. Really spoilt the ride and my chest hurt for an hour after getting back.

I do like to get out every day whatever the weather. I am doing greater distances over tougher routes than I have done before and like everyone else I am not getting any younger.

How do others manage or is it just me? Any suggestions? Apart from staying indoors, ;)

I use a buff doubled up over my face, helps take the edge off the cold air but easy enough to breathe through.
 
currently -6degrees on the thermo - meter so kinda chilly , but cloudless sky for the last week means nae sna' apart fom hills over 2,500ft :xmas-cool:
