There's still drifts up to 4ft deep,  this was taken today (apr 6th) on the road between Otley and Blubberhouses.

Nice.
I sat in the open stand at Bath Rugby, they got thrashed by Stade Francias, and I got sun burn.

Holme Moss still closed with 15 foot drifts towering over the road. Plenty of snow up Dunford Bridge road and A616 to Langsett. Lovely out today. Had the leathers on for the first time since about September last year. No heated grips or insoles or Oxford muffs needed!

You'll be ok, just watch out for melt water across the road in places, could freeze if you're out early?

Had a nice 50 mile ride, as you said a bit of melt water in places but set off at 11.00am so no ice. Lots of bikes out taking advantage of the sunshine.
