Came out of front door at 6.45am, didn't realise there had been a frost. Set off down hill, had gone about 100 yards when front wheel went from under me at about 25 mph. Thought to myself ' oh bugger, not again'
Semi-hard smack onto right hand side, but to my amazement I just kept on sliding down the hill on my side, such was the icyness of the smooth tarmac. I actually had time to quite enjoy it. When I got back up the bike was 20 or 30 feet back up the hill. Had trouble walking as the road was unbelievably slippery.
