Anyone live in, or travelled over the tops this morning near High Bradfield/Oughtibridge? Wondering what the roads are like for a bicycle ride. Bottom of S6 looks clear but there are still patches on the less busy roads and we're quite low down.

Thanks.

All the main roads up there have been ploughed and gritted. Part of the Strines is closed at the moment so I doubt that has been yet. Everything from Brightholmelee to the Strines/A57 junction was clear on my drive to work this morning.

In reply to zb1:

Thanks.

Just come back from a ride the roads are clear but very wet lots of run offs

In reply to robert-hutton:

Just back too. Went into Ewden.

As you say plenty of run off water but most roads seemed debris free. I did think the dips might hold onto ice/slush but they were fine. 

Patches of freezing fog which really chilled me off.

Thanks zb1, I possibly would have been too cautious and sat on the turbo watching the Helvellyn film without your nudge.
