Many people do, but it would be good to email the organiser beforehand to let him know you are coming. Contact chris.crossland (AT) halifaxctc.org.uk.

I'm a bit nervous because I am just losing the protection of Warfarin. It takes a few days to clear the body and Wednesday was my last dose so I am at maximum risk of reclotting now but that risk recedes with time if I avoid risk factors. I am wiggling my feet about now as I type to keep the blood flowing in my legs! Full details over in the GWS thread.

Ive just sent off my money , all £6, so better get out on the bike and get a bit fitter , although the snow drifts are in the way at the moment.

So what do we think the chances are of the weather picking up before the SITD

I don't like to tell you this, but ...
... despite some of the wonderfully sunny editions of SITD recently, I have done it a couple of times in grotty cold conditions, and on one of those, Pendle Hill and the big hills in the Dales were all still snow-capped!

Me neither, I did an adapted version of the SITD for my Feb century a month ride....it wasn't fun in the cold. If its nice I'll participate.....cold, wet, windy, snow.....forget it!

Hopefully Spring will have arrived as suggested by the ride title. The Calderdale CTC club run had to walk a small section of the route on Easter Sunday as there was still enough drifting snow to make it unrideable.
I am sure all this will be a distant memory in a couple of weeks as we cruise round in shorts, and get burnt because of forgotten sun block :-)

I have got to get out sometime and get some proper miles into my legs, so hoping the weather will at least be dry and above freezing

The sun will shine for this event. It will be a bit cool first thing, but will be bib shorts weather for the majority of the day.
If I'm wrong, the big bowls of rice pudding at Rossi's cafe are on me!!!

Through moving house , illness and going on holiday next week I have done pretty much no riding on the bike for two months now, so going to give this one a miss, I am still awaiting the anti biotic to clear this chest infection up.
