The salt was blowing in drifts in places last week, which didn't seem to affect traction, but my chain certainly didn't appreciate.
This week seems to have got off to an auspicious start with a spate of seemingly unrelated diesel spills, which I've mostly managed to avoid.
I haven't actually had a loss of traction incident for a while, thankfully. The last couple were due to unavoidable gravel. It's the leaf chutney that I'm wary of, knowing that the Marathon Greenguards seem particularly vulnerable to the stuff. Fortunately the dry conditions mean there isn't too much of that around at the moment, even if the trees are confused about seasons.
