Title: A bit of (Steaming) Winter Sunshine
Post by: NeilD on December 04, 2009, 05:22:36 PM
last couple of days havent been great weather, however, today was better and the heavy rain yesterday washed the salt off the roads... only to be replaced by muddy tracks from the farmers fields as they harvest everyones Christmas Lunch veggies!  :D

fortunately this sign wasnt applicable today..

and finally some natural 'structures'..  :D
view from the Bluestone Heath road, which apparently follows the route of a prehistoric track... Cadwell Park circuit is a couple of miles up the road..
 Gloves warming on the engine..

just starting to get misty...

straight home after that, and gave the bike a quick hose off and dry.. its always nice to get out on days like this at this time of year, the main roads were dry and decent, some of the backroads were a bit slimey in places.. the biggest problem was the sun - I had a bit of a worrying moment as I crested a slope to be met by full sun reflecting off a wet road - couldnt see a thing!  :shock:
