what did you do with your fazer today ?

[Dudeofrude]

I thought (for some stupid reason) that because the sun was out I would take her for a spin, was not my wisest decision.
I've always prided myself on being an "all weather" kind of rider but i honestly don't think I've ever ridden in conditions as stupid as I did today.
-1°c ambient temperature, salt all over every main road and ice all over every back one. Managed about 45 minutes before I gave up ? had a few minor slips and nearly lost both the front and back on 2 separate occasions add to that the wind chill on my head and neck that was borderline painful was enough to put me off until the Mercury rises again.
Thankfully I'm not at work for the next few months (ever cloud etc) so won't have to use it.

Also as I'm a glutton for punishment I decided to give her a good wash when I got home (with cold water obviously for the salt) followed by a good wax and ACF50 treatment. So all good to be tucked away for a few weeks.

On the plus side my fingers defrosted around an hour ago and seeing as I haven't got to drive tomorrow (or work, or leave the house) so I've had chance to get a few ciders on the go ??
