Video: Winter in Wales

,
On one Friday morning we felt it had been too long since we were out on the bikes. The weather had been grim that week and was still grim on the Friday but we had to get out.

It's been a bit of an ongoing project alongside my uni projects and exams so I've been messing with CSS and Javascript rather allot lately! This is partly the reason why I've not been getting out on my bike as much...
