It goes up a hill near Harston which is so steep some people have been known to snap their chains

Yep, and as your location is Loughboro', there is a group leaving the X roads in Cossington (Platts Lane) at 8:10. Should give a round trip of approx. 80 mls.

Winter may have left us for the minute but the roads are still treacherous, so let’s be careful in the morning.
I came down in Summerby this morning, no grip what so ever at the Post Office corner. Bit of road rash to me and the bike but the worst part is the hole, yes a hole! in my new Assos jacket. |
