I have been out on the bike today for the first time in 11 days. Most but not all of the snow and ice has gone. So we are looking good for Tuesday.

Popped in to the pub (The Plume of Feathers Tewin) to confirm we will be coming on Tuesday around 3pm. They have an offer on of 2 meals for £9.99 which is nice.

We have a Cafe at the start and will pass another 3 before the pub. I have no idea how many pubs we will be passing but it will be well in to double figures.

See you all soon,

Steve

It's not getting better forecast wise, very depressed

Heavy sleet, feeling like -5 in the morning with 16mph wind
Improving in the afternoon, light sleet feeling like -4 as the wind drops

As luck would have it, tomorrow and Wednesday are glorious by comparison

Weather forecast now showing possibly 5-10 cm of snow across the northern Home Counties by Tuesday lunchtime............

 

[marinyork]

I'm pulling out. I don't think it's very sensible cycling for 11-12hours in deep snow or lashing heavy rain, let alone getting home.

It's looking bad - I'm not sure I will even be able to drive over from Milton Keynes to start the ride. There is heavy snow forecast here up to 9 am.

 

[mistral]

Even central London looks grim

I may very reluctantly give this one a miss too

Really not up to getting soaked through in freezing temperature not to mention state of the roads

Unfortunately, this goes for me and Marilyn (Hillclimber) too. Unless the weather is miraculously different tomorrow morning, don't expect us. If it is reasonable, we will be at Hertford by 10 am.
