    Default Wasn't expecting the snow that bad!

    Well as of late (last three months) I've been biking to work to try and shift the flab. This means I kind of check out the weather forecast. So Friday night I set off with the knowledge of "Possible light dusting of snow early Saturday morning" got out of work to three inches.

    My 15 mile ride home was the most scary two hours of my life they say you never feel so alive when your so close to death. I witnessed three crashes and even had the unique experience of having a single decker bus coming at me sideways with me taking to the hedges to get out the way

    Anyhow I took a quick pic when I got home my brakes packed up due to been clogged up with snow.

    Mmmmmm snow equals fun times..
