I'd heard that cars had been completely buried on the Belmont - Rivington road all week. I didn't believe it but went for a spin on the road bike for a look see...

Slow going in places 🙂
There was a pic in the weekends papers of cars buried to their roofs at the bottom of the Pigeon tower!
are those last two near the bottom of the ice cream run Simon?
Not far from there - turn right at the end of the road and you get 2nd last pic, turn left and you get last pic (Sheephouse Lane)
Oh, and I meant to go back and edit so that pics were normal size but I clearly forgot!
I ignored the road closed sign at the weekend...drove up and circa 10ft of ploughed snow in the way. What are the trails like beyond the roads?
Lots of ice & snow apparently
Can you get to the pidgeon tower car park yet?
Snow chance. Seriously. I was going to pop up tomorrow pm.
Why on earth do you need to park there? Too lazy to ride up from one of the barns?
There was a few cars parked in the car park at the bottom of the ice cream run on Sunday.
Nope, it's quieter over that way and there aren't ten thousand sodding gates/stiles to the top, unlike going up from the barns. And when I die coming back down the ICR it's only a short crawl back to the car! 😛
OP stop sticking your snows in. You are giving this thread a frosty atmosphere.
