I should point out that last time I rode it. it was 15C and rainy at the bottom. Yet it was -1/2C with freezing fog at the top. I lost it somewhat. Started wandering down the mountain in my cycling clothes after dropping my bike in the luggage bus, as I did'nt have the brain power or dexterity to change into dry clothes. If I hadnt been picked up, I dread to think what would have happened.
That was an extreme one though. You could'nt see more than a meter or so. The volunteers, that were supposed to be giving out cakes and drinks, where going around finding runners sat in shorts and a vest. Too spaced to realise they were freezing.
It was like a fecking zombie apocolypse up there.
