Wake up to a white blanket outside....lovely, my favorite conditions....wrap up warm and into the shed....RTS suffering 'slippy grip' syndrome so Avalanche it is....'where the hell have you been all week' I hear it think...off we set...decide to check one of the routes for the March Lincoln ride....5 miles or so of road riding gets the blood pumping....onto the dirt track and the mud 'ping-pings' on the downtube...lovely, I've missed this....climb up the footpath and the grass crunches its soundtrack....blast along the farm track and my Schwarble Kenda tyre combo start flicking mud at me....farmer passes me and I wave....get nothing back, I think f**k you in your 4x4....get to Bardney Woods and wind up the pace along the single track....fly over the wooden bridges....I'm loving the ride today....out the other side and retrace my route....frost is now melting and the scenery is different....2 1/2 hours later and I'm home....best ride of my life 8)

Photos to follow :wink:
 
Some photos of the ride; it was the best ride I have had so far this year 8)

Monday morning baiku:

commute to work, choose canal path. 2 coppers stood in way "sorry you can't pass", "oh, why? found a body? :P ", "no, somebody's dumped a world war 2 bomb at the civic amenties site [beside canalpath] and bomb squad are diffusing it". Oh, OK. Won't go that way then :roll:

short diversion across fields, back on path get to work. No sweat. Oddest ride of my life!
