Surely you'll be fine once you get onto the main roads? Though my Dahon folder's wheels slide at the slightest opportunity, so it takes a lot less than ice to make me ultra careful on it. I remember a January audax from Oxford a while ago where the country lanes were frozen solid - I started it with another 'bent rider who ditched after he came off, dragging me down with him! - thereafter, roads were fine. But stalwart blokes on uprights were tackling it nonetheless, a battlefield with regular instances of the fallen lying along the roads, but most made it through unscathed.
