Good news guys we have mild winter coming our way to the UK with only 5 days snow/ice forecast for Nov 2015 to March 2016. That must be worthy biking news is it? Or you reckon this is more general happy winter riding theme? Anyhow here is the good news:

South of France and Spain will take the brunt this time for a change Laughing

Probably means that, really, we'll all be covered in 20ft of snow from December to June...

The law of averages would suggest that the forecasters, eventually, have to get one right. However, given that the vast majority of their forecasts, for my area, seem to have been plucked from their cornholes I won't be mothballing my thermals any time soon!

I trust migrating birds more than weather fiction forecasts Very Happy

The weather forecast changes from day to day. They can't even get that right.

A five month slot? Laughing That will be a laugh.

I opened the box that my new detector was posted in to find it was a 14" vibrating metallic penis.

Not happy.

Yadda yadda yak yak yak stuff about a mild winter


That is because my bike is off the road having new head race bearings and a suspension linkage grease up.
Once it`s all done, you can bet we will have the coldest snap in the entire history of this planet EVER Sad

Any long range weather is largely wank as we know.
