They often close part of the stretch between Robin Hood Gate and Kingston Gate to bikes too if there's been any significant snow, happened the other weekend I think.

Who knows whether the snow forecast in the next few days will be enough to trigger that again.
4 or 5 years ago I cycled up
BastardBroomfield Hill and overtook a Police car that was failing to get anywhere with lots of wheelspin in 2~3 inch deep snow. I just pointed to my studded tyres and disappeared off with a Robert Webb-esque smug grin.
