It Only Gets Better From Here | Winter Solstice Ride

Join the guys as they brave the early morning darkness and rain to celebrate the Winter Solstice. Si, Ollie, Conor and a very late Alex ride through the English countryside to the legendary Glastonbury Tor, hoping to catch the sunrise on the shortest day of the year. It is a wet and very very dark start to the day, but hopefully marking the moment the days finally start getting longer will make the early wake-up call worth it.
