Shortened route this week 27 miles. Enough to feel like you have earned your refreshments, but with a reduced time exposed to the cold conditions this time of year.
Weather: Cloudy, Dry but cold 4-5 deg but with the wind chill feeling like 0-2 deg. Wind: Northerly 12-13, gusting 23-25mph.
Trying to repair punctures in these conditions can be numbing, so do carry a spare innertube to make life as easy as possible, if the worst happens.
Please wrap up warm and wear double thick sock and gloves. A head cover under your helmet is advised.
Please note: The club has a policy to protect riders from riding in unsafe conditions. If icy conditions are present on the roads at 09:00...I will cancel the ride
For those brave adventurous fools who want to join me (if the conditions allow). I look forward to your joyful company once again at 08:45, for a 09:00 start.
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering:  That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
