New Year Surf

It's going to be flat as a strap tomorrow due to the high pressure area that's giving us all this lovely cold Continental air, but the weekend looks pretty epic.  Who's for grabbing a twat-cap and a flask of hot choc and freezing their tits off?

Seems a bit... brisk. I don't understand this surfing in freezing temps. I am used to my dad though surfing in the high 70's-100's when we lived in Charelston. There was of course no need for a wet suit either. Yummy sunny ocean... *shivers in the cold house* :(

You use what you've got :) Anyway, NYD surf is a bit of a tradition.

Hi Andy! Happy New Year! I suppose Ant said that we can't make it.
I am off to Wales on Sunday for some MTB-ing (with some guys fro the club, Ant is not going). Do you fancy joining us?

My MTB's knackered with Mystery Gears Disease at the mo :(

Thanks but I'll pass on that. My views on (and complete inability to cope with) cold water are public knowledge.

Whilst I remember, Taunton Deane's tri forms go up imminently and that one usually fills out pretty fast. May 17th if you are interested
