It started snowing yesterday when I was on my way home. I was shitting myself.
Went around a corner today on (thankfully) a fairly quiet road and the back end broke away. Again, shat myself.
I'm not loving it

It's been a little slippery...even up until an hour or two ago...especially with my mis-matched tyres
Sliding is great fun, but learn what you're doing with it before you do it on the road. Try in a car park...and don't do a SteveP and choose one full of folks up to no good!!
cheers
