Reason I brought this back up is cause I don't feel it needs another thread.

I'm thinking of cycling back home for Christmas on the 20th December, parents are coming to pick my stuff up but I still plan to cycle back.

Just wonder if it would be abit dangerous? As I go up to the top of the pennines and wonder if it might be full of snow/ very icey?

Its certainly worth keeping an eye on the forecast for next week. If there is snow forecast before the weekend I would suggest not cycling. Even if there isnt any forcast may be you should think twice. I would personally after last weekends falls etc. Considering this was at much lower levels I would'nt like to say what wuld be like on the minor roads over the Pennines.

Hmmm, I would normally be ok if it was not so steep just on the top I am hitting speeds of nearly 50mph and I'd kill myself if I fell.

I guess I'll do as you suggested and check the forecast.
