New Year Cycle Ride

A few photographs taken on a cycle ride taken in early 2024 on a cycle ride to Hatfield Forest, Essex. There had been heavy rain the night before but as the day wore on the clouds began to break to let through a sight of the sun.

Winter cycling

It can be harder to go cycling in the Winter; the days are short and the weather is colder. However, a ride through open countryside, with the wind at your back and the low winter sun illuminating leafless trees and ploughed fields, can be a breathtaking experience.
