You'll be looking at around 5-6 degrees centigrade, well above freezing.
I wasnt talking about the ground freezing I was talking about HW freezing.
Sportives are great when the weather is reasonable but not so great when you cant feel your hands and feet anymore, in colder weather I can manage about 2 hours before my feet go numb and I cant feel them anymore and I know this so I make sure my rides in autumn/winter are shorter to take account of this but it doesnt help in keeping the fitness from over the summer.
This year was a pain because the snow just wouldn't go away there was still snow blocking the roads over here in April, here are a couple of pics I took in April on my way to the cafe I came across some road closed signs on a road I usually use so I thought I would pop round the corner and see what the problem was:
This is a hill with a wall going up along side it and the snow was level with that wall so about 3 - 4 foot deep all the way down in April
