@staysure ... this is exactly the point. If I am riding my mountain bike (which is my bike type) on the road then I am not mountain cycling, but I am also not covered by your policy. It should be the activity type and not the bicycle I am riding that is the risk!
@staysure cycling Vs mountain biking policy is very unclear as to activity Vs bike. It seems riding a mountain bike on a road is not covered for liability but riding a road bike on a mountain bike trail would be. Because they use the type of bike not the activity as the definer.
@theiaincameron@GarryWalker74@bbcweather@wanstead_meteo@MarkVogan I asked the Met Office this question in 2018; the Climate Information Centre provided...
14th Jan 1979 when Lagganlia (near Aviemore) went from -23.5degC to +6.6degC a change of 30.1
A diurnal range above 25 is rare for the UK, seeing a diurnal range above 20 is more common.
@StirlingCouncil This is the A821 at noon, on a Priority 1 route on your map... I appreciate conditions are pretty extreme; but that's why sharing where you *have* actually treated and not just where you intend to treat is the key to winter road safety communication.
@leecraigie_@ScotRail Even room for different sized wheels (though 2 of the 6 are still in the stand-up wardrobe). Dunblane to Inverness last weekend, plenty of spare bike capacity ✅
So there we have it. It is confirmed that Scotland is snow-free yet again. The last patch, the Sphinx, disappeared sometime in the last 24 hours. The Sphinx has now vanished four times in the last six years, having done so only five times in the last 300 years. (1/2)
@29Crown A few around Melgarve at dawn, none at Chiarain. None in the hills or glens in the day (nice breeze). Saw a tent near Kingshouse with a swarm outside but overall great!
