Blisters don't hurt when you feet are numb with cold!!

Out on the bike today to give my feet a bit of a rest, it was very wet, windy and very cold, did Loughton to Ware and back along the tow path at the side of the river lea, had a nice bacon sandwich at Dobbs Weir and feed the ducks......

The alarming creaking noise from the pedals just disappeared, and a trip out on the bike would not be complete without a puncture which duly came at the halfway point....I've had the bike 6 months and had at least 6 punctures, today i tried the compressed air sealant puncture repair kit and it worked a treat with the number of punctures i seem to get i better order a case of the stuff.....

Anyway it was a round trip of 38 miles, it was quite hard work and my feet haven't been that cold well since the weekend!!!, all good training for the arctic....
