Just my thrupence worth, tkc are hard in the very cold a brilliant tyre but in the snow and on ice they are very hard and the block pattern is no good at all on ice that is my experience and i have used them a lot, go for the k60 - as for riding in snow its not to me like sand it has far less grip, sand is heavy and in its own way has friction snow doesnt on snow you speed up as you try to ride and its got as much grip as wet mud. I like many have ridden all year round in all weather and often in arctic areas I am sure you can manage but be very aware of the tiredness and hypothermia effects of the cold, I am sure you know the stuff and I dont want to tell you how to suck eggs - you will lose fine control of your reactions quickly then lose feeling in your hands feet etc, First stop after two hours then every hour, take your time and get lots of soup and hot stuff in your body every stop not just a coffee. I am sure you will be fine. Take care but dont push your limits on this last leg the party in London will only be good if your not injured getting there I am sure that everyone would be happy to wait a few extra days if you need it. Best of luck. Tchus jake. Just a footnote would it not cut off a lot of miles to go from Rotterdam to Harwich by ferry
