It’s snowing again! And once again the country is undercover of lots of snow and complaints about how terrible everything is. (We love to complain about the weather). Only a few weeks ago it was very warm. Some of the bulbs I had planted in October were beginning to push through having been fooled by the higher than average temperature for early November. Now we are told we have just had the coldest temperatures since records began.
There is snow in my area but in central London it is clear. Very few trains running in the South East. I was in central London yesterday and there were a high number of Brompton users and I wished I had mine when I found out there were no trains I could get home.. I got the Brompton out today and wheeled it down to the main road which is clear and pedalled off to the Dockland Light Railway which is running as are all the underground trains.
I am off to Brent tomorrow and I will be wrapping up and wearing my sturdy boots from Office. I have got my eye on some shiny black wellingtons but not sure if I can manage being on the bike with them.
(Sorry for being so quiet. Some nerve damage in the fingers of my right hand slowed me down last month.)

One thing I am starting to wish is that somebody starts making snow/ice tyres for the Brompton, as those are very likely to be needed.

There has been more snow overnight and it has started snowing again. I am going to get out my big yellow cape.
I agree with you J about the tyres. Sharon, wish I had your weather so that I can cycle in sandals again.
Happy snowy cycling!
Re~ Wellington boots- I have known people cycle daily with them.
