Between Burnley and Hebden Bridge in the snow

25th February 2005

I've never seen snow like that before in this country.
In places it got scary; wading through waist deep snow drifts, completely unable to see where the path was...thinking i was riding on the left hand side of the road, then noticing that i was on the cats eyes in the middle!
Rich got some more piccies on his disposable camera, so I'll add them to this collection when he gets them developed.
Deffo one of the most memorable rides in a long time; only about 15miles long but it took us over 3 hours!
