Well hi there! Not posted for 11 days which, as we had a holiday to Scotland booked, isn't surprising..... until you hear that due to the heavy snow and very cold weather, we didn't make it to our holiday cottage stopping in Kinross and turning back.
Sooooo, we (the current wife and I) had to spend the holiday period at home :-(
So, did I do any riding over the Xmas break? Well yes, to a degree:

It was very icy out there, resutling in a fall on the said ice down Sheepwash Lane....just after I had warned a cyclist about ice on the road!!!!
Today I headed out on the new bike (Boris the Boardman) which arrived yesterday. I spent time setting it up but have discovered the front brake catches and the gears need indexing. Oh, the right hand crank was also lose when it arrived!!!! Grrrrrrr

Boris works well and is quite quick: the gearing made the main hill quite easy...actually, very easy. Perhaps on Saturday I will cycle to Newport and back along the disused railway line just to knock up a 35 mile ride??? Lets see what the weather is like....cold no doubt.
