Who goes soft in Winter?

[Kramer]

Here's the temps from my ride this morning in Canberra (Bruce Ridge) at 6am - max temp -1 (in my garage), min temp -5 (Belco), avg temp -3.5. I'm hard...actually frozen!

Let me assure you it did not feel that warm on the ride into work this morning, was full winter riding jersey for me...

So you finally put a singlet on? Strewth!

If it hasn't already been said, I am enjoying no snakes in the cold weather - (they shrink!)

Not bad, I sooked out this morning. How is Bruce at the moment? I have heard the conditions there are 'all time' at the moment and it's currently the place to ride in Berra...thinking it might be time to harden up and have a look at it.

That's what I thought, until I saw this last Friday at Daisy Hill? Bit lost me thinks.

Gotta say, they are pretty dang good. Very few puddles or mud patches left but not dry and dusty either. About to head there for the nightly blast right now.

That's up north. A long way away

That's a cuddly one not a bitey

Yep, trails are tacky, fast and dry. I'd be setting PBs all over the place if the engine was in better tune - maybe also subtract a few kilos of winter riding gear too.

CRIKEY!, and here I was thinking a carpet snake was king brown! Still odd to see one out in the middle of winter even in Qld.:fish:

Don't worry mate. I wasn't patronising you. Sorry if it came across that way

Thanks for clearing that up.

They look for the warmth, I had a small brown dart across my feet after I moved some corrugated tin along the fence the other day.

F@#k that, keep darting! I've seen how aggressive they can be, even the little ones.

Ooooooooooooo. That's a biggie! Delete that photo right now or I'll never get my lady into Daisy again! I can't lie, she's tougher than me. Or I'll never go into Daisy again...

Yeah, about 7 foot. I know they are not considered dangerous, but they just scare the absolute crap out of me.
