Is it just me or does it seem to snow less and less each year. With the festive season vast approaching people will be asking themselves whether or not it will be a white christmas.

Personally I'd love to see more snow. The effect the snow has on landscape is both magical and breathtaking. The crispness of the winter skies allows you to see for miles and miles.


The snow also opens up new challenges for mountain bikers, it can be both grippy and icy depending on the type of snow. You also don't know what your riding on as the snow conceals many objects that you would otherwise avoid.

The photographs in this article were taken earlier this year at Rivington. You will notice the crispness of the skies and how the snow reflect light.

Im just hoping we haven't seen the last of snow.
