It was kinda at the limit of what any of us (left to right: Darren, Paul, Robin, Chis, Kev) want to do on a bike. Got up at 6.30 on a Sunday, for a start! Then looked out of the window and saw snow on the cars and on the grass, but not on the road, so that meant no excuses (under severe peer pressure of being called a whimp). Cold, wet and windy, but we all managed it. There is never any choice, unless you want to turn back, which we saw 6 or so people do.
