They're definitely not fine in the rest of the country.
I'm not even doing the Festive 500 but the ice is annoying me. Managed a little ride on Christmas Day morning, seeing family on Boxing Day, local club cancelled their ride yesterday after the ride leader fell off on black ice on the way to the start.
Today was seeing more family. I was grumpy because the weather looked beautiful and I wanted to be out on my bike, but then did see quite a bit of ice.
Tonight looks worse. All the roads round here are small lanes (prone to ice) or shit main roads and my elbow is still recovering from breaking it over the summer so I really can't afford to fall off and break anything else.
Meh.
