With average temperatures of 13-14 degrees and hardly any rain, this autumn/winter seems to confirm all predictions on global warming. Find my self sweating in my winter suit and gloves!
No complains, however. Probably things get worse in januari/februari/march.

Mate, you really should take global warming seriously.
If the ice caps melt then Holland will be 8 feet under water.
Never mind a Lennies snorkel, you'll need one from a submarine to run the bike!

Well,.. that's blown it. Freezing Rain is a certainty now you've said that,.. and just when we thought it was all going so swimmingly well

I live in the 'dry' (east) part of holland (see red arrow): 10 meters above sealevel. So I feel quiete safe for the coming century.

Why do you think the Dutch are so tall? It's genetic engineering mate, when the waters do come, they will still have their heads in fresh air. They have been working at it for years.
cold snaps a'coming!

I predict a change back to the proper seasonal temperatures with the full moon next week. And the fact that I have booked Monday off with the intention of a days riding.
