Frosty and sunny Saturday morning local road ride on Cannondale Black Inc Nano

What a horrible week of weather but the sun finally came out and it stopped raining on Friday. Shame I did not have time to get a ride in. Once I finished work I washed and gutted the van out as it was going in for it 1st year service this morning but managed a quick walk with Angus late on. Thursday we managed to get a good walk in for a couple of hours.
Back to today and I had to drop the van off at the garage for 8am so packed the bike in and did a local loop from there. By the time I got back to the garage it was just over 36 miles. It started off with a heavy overnight frost and the Garmin was reading less than 2 degrees but after 36 miles the Garmin was reading 13 degrees. What a cracking morning for a ride, the sun was shinning the whole time and very little wind. The sun yesterday must  have dried up the country lanes but the gritter's had been out so washed and dried the bike once I got home. The roads were quiet'ish with traffic as well and seen quite a few roadies out enjoying the sun as well. The bike was flying along but I am still not back to full power and still suffering from man flue, just cannot shake it off. Once home it was garden time and had a good fours cutting, raking away the winter rubbish, even got time to wash the car before going to our Islay's birthday party.
Below are a couple of snaps from the ride, enjoy and hopefully more soon -
