Yeah that's a good point I guess. But then I've never really thought about not riding in case I have a spill. I'll ride regardless of the weather. Most roads are gritted anyway. The only time I haven't ridden because of the weather was when I got snowed in last year.
I knew damn well that as soon as I got on the main roads I would be fine, but I live at the bottom of a hill and the only way out is up it. No gritters come down that road. Was funny to see how many other vehicles slid down it and couldn't get back up again. There was a queue of traffic all the way round the estate for over a day. And that included a PSV too.
