Easy Worth Way Ride

Well, I have ridden my bike every day during this extreme cold weather and snow, usually following more major roads rather than the usual ‘back-doubles’. And we had several people who had emailed about joining us on Sunday for a morning ride down the Worth Way. But when I got up we had got the ‘freezing rain’ weather resulting in sheet ice on surfaces, particularly the non-main roads. So I texted the people most likely to ride and discovered that all but one had already decided not to ride. Sorry to our main ‘Iron Man’ Anton, who was already on his way to Three Bridges, but we must avoid any ice related incidents on club rides. I did attend the start, and the main roads were fine, but no other takers arrived. The weather is improving now and hopefully we will have a good attendance next Sunday starting at 10.00 at Horsham Leisure centre. We will be riding to the Countryman at Shipley which was the destination of the very first Horsham and Crawley CTC ride over 25 years ago. It is an easy ride and we hope to see you there.
