One of my courses at college is in a different town the prob is its about a 30 min ride so I have to leave early.

I woke up and it was dry outside so I got the bike ready etc and set off problem is 2 mins out on the road and it started to rain pretty hard.

But it was that cold it froze to me and the bike instantly. Laughing

I had to pull over about 6 times to crack the ice off my visor and gloves.

when I got to college the grip really made me laugh, wonder how I even held onto it.

And when I came out of class:

Yes my tyre was frozen. Shocked

The last pic really doesn't show it but my caliper and disc are covered in ice and they had no feeling even after getting it all off.

This is my real first winter here and It has never got that cold In was in England.

I was on the road for 2 hours in it 1 hour there one hour back Laughing

I didn't take pic's of my boots or glasses either boots were just as bad.

Riding with the visor covered in ice was like playing doom you couldn't really tell what any thing was till it got close Laughing

The worse bit is when I had to get on the high-way cars were kicking loads of spray up and that just added to the ice.

Cool thing was pulling up to traffic lights and the whole bike would just start to steam me included Laughing

I have never seen my private parts look so small either. Shocked

Laughing Ram, that 'beach penis' is the world's only 7 star hotel! Hardly worth the degrading title of a penis!

Oh and here's my bestest friend in the world as well, lena Razz

I'm afraid of heights so it would add an extra bit of danger to a rather boring game Smile

It is indeed the Burj Al Arab, i'll give you a karma cookie if you can tell me what that means Razz

That roof tennis court was just set up for that shot as a publicity stunt kinda thing. Usually it's just a heli pad used to transfer the hotel's guests from the airport.

You have the choice of a Rolls Royce Phantom ride or a heli ride to the hotel!

I wasn't going to, you still managed to get it wrong!

Burj Al Arab directly translated means Tower of the Arabs.

Close, i guess Laughing

And Mike, f**k mate, i know you haven't had any in a long time, but there's no need to go relating everything to penises!

Or are you coming out the closest? Wink

Laughing Oh well, I won't use wikipedia to impress people again.



*edit it seems I'm the dumb ass after all, 'Al Muntaha' one of the restaurants in the hotel means ultimate or highest.
I didn't read far enough down to find out what Burj Al Arab means Embarassed
