OK maybe that wasn't such a great idea. Here's one that I took in 2017. I think there is plenty to think about here and if not I have good clues.

Was the latest one taken on that 400k Audax you enjoyed so much?
I'll carry on looking for the 1954 one anyway. I've taken a copy of the picture in case your post should disappear.

It's foggy, so I'm going for the Cambrideshire/Suffolk border, because it was foggy when I went there a few years ago.

Its not on an Audax. But it is an organised ride.
There's a geographical (if that's the right word) reason for the must/fog.

You were in a valley, temperature inversion area.

No, definitely not a valley. Very very flat

Here?
Raspberry Hill Lane (why 'Hill'?) near Iwade, just outside Sittingbourne. Been for a night-ride or two that way, and even experienced the fog!
In fact I was there on 8th April 2017 - I wonder if @Dogtrousers was too?

Bang on.
I've been down there a couple of times with mist hanging over the marshes.
My picture was taken on a Friday Night Ride to Whitstable
The marshes were where Pip encountered Magwitch in Great Expectations, so my Magwitch clue goes unused.

Snap. I may have been on the same ride, or another that year.
This is a picture I took on that ride, a bit earlier before dawn but with the same fog

Next one : no clues this time, there's enough in the picture

It's tremendously similar to the Medway Bridge in Yalding, but closer examination shows it isn't that. Also similar (but less so) to another bridge further downstream on The Medway.

FFS gies a chance with the other one!
It's the A72 about a mile West of Peebles. The Neidpath Viaduct in the background is still there.
I'm on my hols and can't link to street View from my phone, or upload a pic of mine of the viaduct.

Yes you're right, it's Swarkestone causeway, crossing the Trent floodplain south of Derby
