Cycling for All 2

The Lancaster District is rightly proud of its extensive cycling network - the largest in Lancashire! As well as dedicated routes, the district has many quiet lanes, byways and bridleways, offering a wide range of cycling opportunities in gloriously diverse scenery.
Lancaster was one of the first six places in the country to be named a 'cycling demonstration' town and this has encouraged even more of us to get on our bikes and enjoy all the benefits – and the sheer fun – of cycling.
To make it even easier, Lancaster City Council has produced this helpful guide, providing at-a-glance information about eight great rides ranging from 32 – 55km (20 – 34 miles). Some are generally flat, while others are decidedly hilly. Some can be tackled on any serviceable bike; a few are best on a mountain bike, though tarmac alternatives are given.
These rides should be suitable for anyone with some cycling experience; they’re certainly not just for hardened athletes. However for absolute novices and younger children, Lancaster City Council also produces a Cycling For All guide featuring shorter routes mostly on traffic-free trails.
