Thanks for posting that Kev I'd never of known otherwise... :roll:

What they failed to add is a warning to watch out for silly old doffers out for a Sunday bimble in their automatic who cant tell the difference between the gas & the brake pedal...

He got his knee down, what's the problem?
Anyway, snow's nice and soft.

Looked to be on a camping trip, as well, with all the gear loaded.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

It looks like they are trying to suggest bigger bikes are the problem too?
"62% of the bikes are over 500 cc" 8O

How ridiculous is that! Bigger bikes have better brakes,tires,suspension better everything they may as well said most of the snow only happened on the cold days!

Perhaps they should copy in the gritting teams and drivers to the alert.....

But that would be lying. If it Snows it is warm not cold. If it too cold you wont get Snow. I think it needs to be just above freezing. Usually there is a cold spell and then it warms up a tad and then it Snows.

Lying or laying?
This is drifting towards an argument......

I'm looking forward to some nice warm snowy days, Carl.
