:o just a heads up for anyone still riding now the frosts have started to appear , my daughter slid off her ped this morn whist on her way to work ; sounds like too much front brake on the frosty bits and the front end went bye byes on her, she's ok but with a cut to her head and legs , I pick the ped up tonight, I will have to take her out for a few pointers , esp as I've experience of slipping on frost (ahem ahem ) :roll:
So please let this be the only hiccup for us riders be careful guys and gals ;)

Glad to hear your daughter is ok. :-D

Was a little on the chilly side.....minus 2 in my neck of the woods. :shock:

Maybe she applied too much brake because her hands were cold. I hear heated grips are a good idea. How about fitting some for her. Heard your a dab-hand at it now :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Glad she is OK Plasma.

brrrrrrrr ice, frost and snow! looks like the weather has caught up with the time of year then. Still, there will be good riding days to enjoy over the winter. Just be careful and wrap up warm.
