Notes:<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a challenge to arrive at BL in one piece as rain on ice is slipperier than a Teflon toilet.<\/p>\n

G arrives bruised and battered after discovering (yet again!) that the canal is the wrong answer, and then immediately becomes a DNS.<\/p>\n

Grim route discussions finally evolve to a road climb to the cat, which rapidly becomes a depressing monotony of mist & rain. PTD takes charge at Crooked yard lane pit stop and after conversing with a van who had mistaken it for the teggs nose turn (yes really very foggy) we decide to try the forest singletrack. Dentists descent is excellently slithery, trees keep the\u00a0 worst of the rain and fog at bay, deers are a leaping between Dan and Stunt, and more fun is had on the path down to the road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black ice is forming so over to the LHS for more packed snow & occasional ice. Mostly rideable even if weight is required on the back (for traction) and the front (for steering) at the same time! Butty goes sliding at the reservoir spillway and its \u201cinteresting\u201d from there to the Smithy, and a creep to the Church House in case of black ice. Black Sheep, hot food (eventually) and banter \u2013 TJ shows the latest in cyclescheme chic from Sinclair, and Butty recommends horsey gloves that grip better as they get wetter!? Slim actually manages to leave with Stunt avoiding the usual “extra half” of evilness, there\u00a0are syncronised offs\u00a0on the silk road underpass on the way home \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n
