I share your pain Ian. Heavy duty rain here so no riding here either and SNOW up in the hills. And .... it's bleeding well meant to the middle of spring here. At least it's the colder season where you are

Yeah. I feel for you Canada guys. I seldom feel sorry for myself, thinking about the California pricks. But, it makes me feel a little better to think about Canada.

I recall one day about 8 years ago here in Perth the weather was so bad I had to wait ten minutes for it to clear up.
Nearly ruined my afternoon.

Many thanks for the words of sympathy
Today's photo below, and yes it has started snowing again - on the bright side, the weather system gifting us with all this joy is moving east and south, so in the next few days areas south of the 49th parallel will be similarly blessed !!!
You are, of course, most welcome !

Ohhh that looks bad Ian, and to think its not even November yet. The sad thing is it will be there in Calgary until April next year.
Two strokes, its just that simple.
