After an extended period of snow, rain, wind, and just cold weather, we finally had a day with sun and projected highs around 50F! Such a good day for our planned group ride of 20. We did have freezing conditions overnight down to about 28F and so, as an abundance of caution, we elected to delete a steep downhill on Holmes Point Road since it is high in elevation, in the shade, very steep, some potholes which could restrict your ability to find a line, etc. all of which would be quite problematic if someone found some frosty conditions. No one actually seemed to have a problem with deleting the downhill (and, of course, that meant deleting the uphill!)
At the start:
