Just looked at the thermometer and noticed it's getting a bit colder than expected.... Feeling a bit sad i no longer have my bike and really would love to be heading out for a ride, 8 below is a bit of an ask though methinks. Can't wait for the European Summer!!!! I will have to find a Czech ATNR (and maybe another bike first). Happy belated Christmas and New Year to all.

I know your pain man, well about half of it actually because Im in Ireland and its -3 and way too icy to even think about riding the bike. I tried the mx bike yesterday and fell off 3 times in 10 minutes:rolleyes: Luckily Im heading for NZ in a week so a bit warmer then.
Two of the guys I work with are after driving home to Most in the Czech republic for christmas so looks like there going to be happy with the weather.

Oi Shamus, this a ferkin competition huh? Right then...I will just roll me sleeves up

My European Christmas date was minus 27c, 12 inches of snow frozen solid.
My Islamic new year got up to minus 17C in the sun during the day.
My Russian Orthodox Christmas hit Minus 32C at night.

Now I will roll me sleeve back down cause me ferkin arms are frozen.

However....in three weeks I to will be in NZ, in the summer on my bike...maybe I will see you there.
