Nowt in the Kirkbymoorside area,might be a slight dusting on the top of the moors from what I can see from the upstairs window.
Cheers Vern , I was thinking of either doing the Rosedale railway or Sutton bank to Hawnby (a la your Hambleton ride but cutting down off the rigg slightly earlier) then climbing up to Newgate bank and over the top and down Riccal Dale and back to Nawton (where we're camping) on Saturday , (the wife can get a good walk from the top of Sutton Bank with the pooches so dumps me there and meet back at the caravan ). Wheres home ?

just back from pickering, no snow what so ever up there, within eye shot, helmsley etc... even across to the east of sutton back where you can see that white horse. nowt. i dare say up towards rosedale there must be some banks of the white stuff but nothing to worry about.
have a good 'un.

Snow report.
I did the Drove Road from the Sutton Bank end yesterday, as well as a quick spin about in Boltby and Silton Forrest, there was some deep drifts (over knee height) on the Drove Road but they were all after you will be turning east to Hawnby. On the tops it was frozen and the riding was OK, but lower down it had thawed and its very wet, the fire roads in the forests were good but as soon as I turned off them it was a mudfest. Have a good ride, don't forget your gloves, its chilly.
