January Cycling Adventures: Fat Bikes, SingleSpeed & Cake
January was a month of wild rides—through Calderdale’s brutal climbs, along the windswept east coast, and everywhere in between. Switching between the fat bike and single speed, I tackled mud, ice, and headwinds, sometimes solo, sometimes with friends—always single-eyed and determined. Calderdale’s hills never show mercy, but the descents (and café stops) make it worthwhile. Seaside rides tested grit, but coffee and cake were the perfect reward. Whether spinning out on the flats or grinding up climbs, every mile was an adventure. Winter riding might be tough, but it makes the summer all the sweeter.
