Counting on … day 1.195

17th October 2023

Cycling as the days draw in and the weather gets colder, needs a little more planning. Have you got cycle-lights  and are the batteries fully charged? Have you got outer-layers that are waterproof, warm and high-viz? Have you got a brim on your cycle helmet or do you have a cycling cap to wear underneath, that will provide shade from the low but bright winter sun? Shining straight into your eyes, the sun can dazzle and limited visibility.
