Even in the snow and icy conditions we have been out delivering office furniture on our cargo bike, it's difficult on side roads still and so the decision to ride on dual carriage ways was necessary. It helps that most drivers give you space but there are a few who don't and many who are trade people doing the same as us; working.
We aren't holding you up we aren't 'too slow' we are just doing a job in difficult conditions so if you drive, for work or commuting, think about whether it's the speed of the journey or the safety of the other road users, just ease off the accelerator and give at least 1.5m between you and the cyclist or pedestrian walking on the road because the paths are unsafe. This weather happens infrequently in Britain and everyone understands if you are a few seconds late because you did the right thing for your fellow worker and traveller.
Drive and ride safely.
