Frozen mud

Is there anything finer? Was up a big mountain yesterday, known for it’s schlomp and bog for the first haul, but everything was frozen and you could ride all of it, your brain was saying “Your going to sink” but you just sailed over, brilliant. However, as a discovered on two occasions ice is fierce slippery, arrrgh my hip is sore.
I passed you heading out in a big mountainous area at 10.55. it looked lovely and fresh'n'crispy.
I was workbound.... and very jealous. why is this recession still making me work on Sundays?......
