Sounds like you lot are getting some warm ryding weather over there; while here in Oz, on the other side of the World & a fair bit further South, we're in the middle of those '
flooding rains' - mentioned in the "
Land of Droughts & Flooding Rains" poem about the Sunburnt Country that I love! - apologies to Dorothea McKellar
Still, the rain, wind, & cold hasn't (quite) stopped me ryding (yet

), but in those few parts of the Land Down Under that do actually get snow, we've had a real rip snorter of a start to our Snow Season, altho no-one's getting quite as much snow as they used to get 30-40+ years back! :shocked: But it
is pretty cold for this time of year in Oz - most days here in the Hills of South Aus are barely making it outta single digits (°C) and the wind chill is dragging the '
feels like' temp down into the low single digits most days, even lower on some!! For a while there, we saw regular bus loads of Brass Monkeys heading North, but not any more.... it seems that all those left this far South are already knackered, so they just can't be bothered now! :dontknow: Who'da thunkit that back a few months when we were pushing the high 40's, doing things like dodging melting asphalt, & ryding in the wee small hours to avoid the heat?!? :gaah:
