Year

2017

The Dunwich Dynamo is an annual overnight cycling event that sees participants riding from Hackney in East London to Dunwich on the Suffolk coast, distance of 116 miles. I covered it (by car) for the For the Financial Times with the writer Sam Murphy who cycled the entire distance. The pictures commence at a feeding station along the route.
