Braving the weekend

I'm guessing this will be another long shot, the weather for this weekend looks like being bloody cold, but I passed my test in that, and I'm not working, so I'm damn well getting out on the bike . I usually set off from the house and just ride wherever my nose takes me, but if anyone else is in the area (Oxford/Swindon ish) and fancies meeting up somewhere, give me a shout. Getting a bit lonely out on the roads by myself

If you do get out, spare a thought for us. We've got snow forecast for the weekend and I (call me a wimp) will definitely not be going out in that.

It is my intention never to die. So far everything is going to plan.

I'm drawing a line at snow mate, the wet leaves are causing me enough problems....

Re: Braving the weekend

Hmm, just checked the weather forecast. -3 on Saturday, and heavy snow on Sunday, maybe, just maybe, I'll give it a miss this weekend and crack on with that service instead. Might be safer

I do those for free to anyone that has contributed to the Replicast team fund



I read that smoking weed destroys your brain cells - so I gave up reading

Why not try out our other sites? The Biker Cafe and Bikerholic

Happy to provide a contribution Spree, hope to see a few races next year, can you point me in the right direction to make one?

Cheers
