110 miles on December 23rd - any chances?

Keep an eye on the weather reports, I wouldn't want to get stuck out in snow. If I was doing it on my audax bike I'd be worried about the ice too.

+1. Even if there is no ice at sea level, at that time of year the tops and downs can be horribly treacherous. A broken clavicle is probably *not *what you want for Christmas.

(Trying to remember the words to the song "Jonny, don't be a hero.." but I am sure you get the drift.)
