Some (poor) photo's of the Sherpa in the snow today, just like a summer day to us "Scots".

Lovely photos Bobs,  especially from where i am viewing them - 8 foot from a woodburning stove!

Looks like a lot of fun, hopefully i'll be able to get out in it tomorrow...

Gary.

Great pics, you've got a lot more snow than us. 

My raven tour made its way through snow and ice this morning on the commute.  I had a lot of weight in the panniers which helped on the hills a bit I think.  It's days like this when I'm really pleased I have only single sided SPDs as it is pretty hairy being clipped in on ice.

The snows all gone today. It didn't last long.
