Snow!

I think the brakes will still do quite a lot, but they'll be lacking a fair amount of grip.

Yes, sorry: the brakes will work fine, the tyres will do almost literally nothing.

No brakes at all

I love snow. Not for riding in, but I just love snow. That's all.

Fat tired bikes are best for snow. I have seen them goes through snow and ice with ease. It is a shame that there are not fixed gear bikes with fat tires, the nearest equivilant at cruiser bikes.

I'm looking forward to riding home. I confess that I'm on the tourer, as I haven't found studded tyres small enough to fit the fixed (although I heard about some 700x30c out this year, which might just squeeze in). Anyway, I'm looking forward to riding, but not looking forward to where I have to share with idiot motorists.

Fixed gear bikes are just bikes running a fixed wheel, they come in all flavours.

Most of this has melted, we now just have two large balls on our lawn.

The australian student houseshare on my road built a giant snow-penis, a snowman with a giant erection supported by a broom handle (very clever!) and an igloo which they dared each other to sleep in until one of them passed out, then they put him in it.

A welcome break from all of the yummy mummy aspirationals around here.

hardly conduct befitting of a gentleman though...

I hate snow. It means I can't go for a run ):

So... yellow warning of Snow for Surrey tonight, with the BBC forecasting heavy snow falling at 5pm in my neck of the woods.

I wish I'd fitted my snow tyres!

Yellow warning of snow or warning of yellow snow?

Look like my Surrey commute will finally be interesting.

Here's hoping the drivers will be fine.
