5 years ago this week...

5 years ago this week it snowed, the most snowfall in 17 years in November all across the UK...
It kept snowing...BBC TV broadcast that an Artic blast was about to hit the UK...
The local council ran out of grit to keep roads clear of the snow and rural roads were ploughed and left...
Brilliant if you owned one of a handful of Fatbikes here in the UK...
After months of mocking on MTB internet forums the shoe (4" tyre) was now on the other foot... :D

  1. wow...great vids Bruce.
    We don't get much snow here in the midlands,
    the pugs is still great fun in our boggy winter woods though...

  2. Hi Wolly, East Lothian usually misses the snow too being on the east coast but those winters of 2010 and 2011 were surreal!
