Well the boy learnt an important cycling life lesson this morning, don't leave so late in the winter that you can't scrub if it's looking icy.
He apparently manoeuvred too fast round a parked car and had a catastrophic loss of traction.
Busted lip and a black eye for his troubles. Irritatingly his current full face helmet has got too small, don't ask why he has a full face helmet he was ten when he decided he wanted it, but for his only serious off it actually would have benefited him!Posted 2 years ago # -
Hope he is ok

He's got a fat lip, grazes on this cheek, forehead and is a little shaken up but largely fine now, thanks.

Though the warning stops short of Edinburgh, with the closest blizzard predicted for Fife, the city is not being let off that easily with snow predicted over the weekend and on Monday next week.

@stiltskin Yup. Checked it yesterday and booked my shopping for this morning, the paths are...fun.

MMW decisively more freshly gritted than NMW this morning. Hoping that means that the tractor was out and about, and not that NMW is no longer Priority 1.

Watch your step out there folks, pavements are lethal in parts of south Edinburgh. I went flying on some black ice up near Oxgangs Library - nothing damaged apart from my pride and a loaf of bread that was in my backpack. I imagine untreated cycle paths, or those washed clean of salt, will be similar.
