@sidevalve in agreeing with Copenhagenize shocker! http://www.copenhagenize.com/2012/01/overcomplicating-winter-cycling-why-its.htmlJust a thought - large chunks of Europe don't use grit even on the roads - why are we so crap. Or is it the usual - It's always 'somebody else's fault'
What's a gritting lorry never seen one in my area
Is that a dedicated gritter or some adaptation on a mini-sweeper? We have mini-sweepers around here (not often enough but... cuts and stuff...)That's a photo from last winter
