Cycling Photo Challenge - Entries and Chat

[FrothNinja]

Been having a thunk about a theme - tempting to go the full cheese given it is December. I am also tempted to threaten penalties for pics that contain crass seasonal commercialism - I suspect you lot of battlers would enjoy circumventing tacky Chrimbo crud. December is also the first month of Winter, on my side of Earth, and the month of Advent. None of which helped me to get to a theme for the month but did make me think something uplifting might be suitable, something that gives the middle finger to the big pile of sh!t so many of us are contending with, something that makes us look for light in the shadows.
I hope that local conditions don't make the chosen topic impossible - and many apologies to those who only ride at night. If you are in the Northern hemisphere the theme is "WINTER SUN", and for all you Southern hemispheroids "SUMMER SUN".

Not a chance of me entering this competition for a while - and I'm on driving duties next Saturday.

So you had the sun all this time! It has been twilight with rain here for days.

You should see the quack for a remedy

Hope this meets the brief. I popped out yesterday to catch some winter sun before it goes sub zero and the grey returns. It’s the wall of a church, in a village I passed through. I stopped there to have a snack and noticed my shadow on the wall.
