On a day of persistent black ice, one Wheeler did a bit on the gritted A148, then round by Heath Farm and beyond, which was icier than anticipated. The only rider to persevere was Brian, who stuck to the gritted roads, hoping that the ice would ease after 11.00.
Route: A149, B1436, A140, B1436, A148, PC, turning south on the minor roads towards Aldborough, but, with the ice maintaining its grip, it was an enforced break for flapjack and tea at Che’s Spanish Cafeteria at Thurgarton and some Spanish conversation before a slow last few miles home.
19 miles.
Sunday would have been rather better, with a lot of dry roads and only patchy ice.
