In view of the bitterly cold conditions, the consequent risk of ice, and the patchy freezing fog, I have decided to delay the start of today’s ride until 10.45. We will then head straight to lunch, with no coffee stop, and plan to be back well before dark when the temperatures are again set to plummet. It should be sunny but still very cold through the middle of the day.
An e-mail has been sent to all those who have signed up for announcements regarding this group.
