Bonus Posted December 24, 2020 Author Posted December 24, 2020 The spanish people love Christmas and we have lots of Christmas Trees here in Spain, but out on my ride yesterday I came across this "Christmas Ladder" in the nearby village of Margudged, decorated with baubles, flowers and cuddly toys..... :-) Andrea & I wish everyone on Bikehub a Merry Christmas. Best wishes to everyone. Tony. DJR, Rocket-Boy, Loose cog and 8 others 11
Bonus Posted December 29, 2020 Author Posted December 29, 2020 Temps dropped here over the last week - and then last night around midnight it started snowing! I took these outside our rented flat at 1am last night. It was amazingly quiet and still, with just a light falling of snow coming down . . . . . the tyre tracks were from a patrolling police car.

Bonus Posted December 30, 2020 Author Posted December 30, 2020 Snow & Sunshine - outside the village of Latorrecilla, just down the road from our "Project" Wannabe, Matchstix, DJR and 1 other 4
Bonus Posted January 2, 2021 Author Posted January 2, 2021 It's slowly melting away now, but the day it snowed we took a drive and some photos. It's beautiful, but you have to be careful where you try and drive. We have a 4WD SUV for this very reason - rural and snowy winters - but even so we didn't go "off Piste!"! This is Latorrecilla . . . . Albatross, DJR, Wannabe and 1 other 4

Bonus Posted January 4, 2021 Author Posted January 4, 2021 We took a drive up out of the back of Boltana on the gravel road to Morillo de San Pietro (Sampietro) yesterday but we had to stop a couple of km short of the village when the snow got too deep. It's a route I often cycle - so I knew what was coming up - and although we have a 4WD SUV, we weren't taking any chances! It was a nice drive regardless. BigDL, DJR, Wannabe and 1 other 4

Bonus Posted January 10, 2021 Author Posted January 10, 2021 So we had some snow, which we enjoyed. Most of that melted and life returned to normal - then along came Storm Filomena! Spain was hit pretty bad, some places (mostly down in the south) with rain resulting in localised flooding and some places (Madrid for example) with a lot of snow, which closed major airports & freeways etc. We got off lightly, maybe 15cm of snow over 36 hrs - which is what we generally get when it snows here the once or twice over a normal winter. The council snow ploughs have been out in force and the pavements have been salted..... We did one of our local footpath walks yesterday and it really was beautiful. Not too cold as long as you were wrapped up (no wind helps) and everyone we bumped into was very socialble & in good spirits. Happy days . . . . Albatross, Wayne pudding Mol, Gandalf and 3 others 6
Bonus Posted January 10, 2021 Author Posted January 10, 2021 This map tells you what you're looking at . . . it says "Snow" - which is correct! RoddieJ, DJR, Matchstix and 1 other 4
Bonus Posted January 25, 2021 Author Posted January 25, 2021 After the latest snowfall last week some of our local "property developers" (kids) went into business. A lovely little property to live in during the winter and turns itself into a swimming pool come summer! Wayne pudding Mol, Prince Albert Cycles, ChrisF and 11 others 14
