200mile round trip to MMC yesterday. Left at 7.45am, -2 degrees so was very grateful for the heated seats. Every time I lost feeling in my hands I just stuck one between my legs and seat to warm them up.

Ride back was a little warmer, but sporadic showers and hit a massive sleet storm on the outskirts of Northampton, zero visibilty and very painful on the face! Only lasted about 4 miles though and soon back in the sunshine.

Stuck to mostly A/B roads, but ventured in the M40 and M1 for small bits so I didn't end up stuck at traffic lights in the showers.

Car is running beautifully at the moment, and the 5 speed box is still a delight. Cruises effortlessly at 60mph, but will travel happily at 80mph on the motorways.
