Thank you to all my Twitter friends who offered their #wintercycling tips and also thank you to Tom Babin from Shifter for helping me get started: youtube.com/@Shifter_Cycling
Also thank you Mike for your youtube tips, here’s Mike’s channel: youtube.com/@mikeymcbikeface3244

Thank you to @IanMcCausland who inspires me, drives me to be better at everything and makes me believe I can do anything. Ian also shoots and edits all of my videos, gives me tons of ideas, connects me with the right resources, and then directs all our shoots.
Whatever he didn’t shoot, was shot on my Insta 360 x3 and if you’d like to get one, I highly recommend it, specially for cold weather as the battery lasts over an hour in -30C and the image quality is perfect for capturing those pesky license plates!
