Beautiful Foggy Bingley

There may not appear to be many rewards for getting up at 6am, and cycling in the dark on a November morning, but for some reason I'm still amazed at the joys cycling can bring - even in what would seem to be unpleasant conditions.

As ever, the weather was good today, with the overnight rain clearing up, but leaving the surfaces damp. There was just a little bit of fog in the valley, and as we came into Bingley the light was just breaking through leaving us with a spectacular view of the lights of Bingley emerging through the fog. A train on our left was heading off to Keighley, and for some reason that was the 'yeah, this is good' moment of the day.

Always a good way to start the day!
