Today’s ride was primarily to get some new tyres, but I took the opportunity to put a few miles into scrubbing them in.

Still a shade too cold for me though, once above about 50 the wind chill was too much for my current gear and the experience was no longer much fun.

Cold little run over the Long mynd, Shropshire hills today. Saw pony's having a good munch. Lovely view's up there. About 60 miles all done. Mixed weather, cold sun, cold snow and some cold hail.

Maybe we should have a thread/poll to work out what the box is for. Storing loose bolts perhaps? Maybe it's for cleaning products?
