Default Grrrrrrr

Did anybody ride today?

The DSA told me it was too icey to do my test, well actually I asked them if it was still on I think they where going to wait for me to turn up, then turn me away.

I cycled to college and the roads I use are backgrounds and they seemed fairly clear.

Means more waiting..

Only fairly clear? No wonder they cancelled it. Remember, these back roads are just the places where you'll be doing your u-turn and controlled stop. Would you want to do those on ice?

The DSA cancel tests when there is a significant risk posed by the weather, even down to the lightest dusting of snow obscuring the view of road markings.
