Early morning risk assessment

I found out I'm leading a ride this Friday on Monday. Although I've done the route before it was last summer so I knew it had to be checked out. Looking at my schedule for the week this morning was the only realistic time so I was on the train from Bolton at 6:15am. Riding up the loop line it was so cold, I definetly had the wrong gloves on, but it was also lovely. I forget how much I love early mornings sometimes.
