Cocktails

We had our annual cocktail party last night. All of Team Tapas attended, along with some proper bike racing types and other assorted layabouts, culminating in some snowy muggings outside in the street at 3am. There were some vague mutterings about entering the Cardiff round of the Welsh Cyclocross League the following morning, but I certainly didn't make it, and I have strong doubts about the others.

Snow and ice

Just fitted some snow tyres to the SS, fairly narrow but with a deep tread and studs down the outside. Hopefully they will keep those heart-in-the-mouth moments when the front wheel slides a foot to the side on some ice to a minimum (I really dislike it when that happens on the way to work). I have also discovered that sticky rubber soled shoes work quite well on ice. Roll on the Puffer...
