@mick..lol.. 

to the rest of the muddies...sorry I didn't hang around to chat.. had a sick son to take to the doctors. I have to say that that was the coldest ever my face, fingers and feet have ever been on a descent..  I was going slow... not for safety but to reduce chill factor.  fingers were so sore when I got home I couldn't get my booties off!  :)

I now know how many tubes you can stuff in a jersey pocket.

Tried ringing from lofty Gill but the signal couldn't penetrate the freezing fog,

Waited at Riminis 10.50 - 12.00 with jerseys. Nobody showed. My Telstra mobile is playing up with texts and calls. Hope nothing went wrong on the ride.

Gone to ride a bike in the gym now, like sensible people do ;-)
