Ride 09/12/2018

Well it was a nice sunny day but stupidly freezing, in fact it was so bad one of the roads we cycled down we came upon another group of riders all lying across the road :-0 They had hit ice at speed and the entire group had gone down hard, must have been about 10 – 15 of them, I dare say there were a few cuts and bruises but I didn’t see anyone needing medical help. Suffice to say we all got off our bikes and walked the next 50 meters until we were sure we were past the worst of it. The rest of the day went fine and once the sun had got up high enough it thawed the roads out, but we stuck to the main roads after that. Since I hadn’t ridden yesterday I felt fine today and was able to keep up with the group and we weren’t hammering it speed wise so that helped me as well
