Hi Don
The NCN (National Cycle Network) routes are the blue signs and can be on road, cycle path, tow path, etc. They do vary abit in quality, but are handy. Route 6 from where I live into Leicester City is very good and a mix of all 3 of the above
You can buy maps, etc have a look at the Sustrans website: Sustrans | Join the movement (I think). There is also an interactive map of cycle routes on there
Thanks jasono ... I'll look into this further ...

Don :cool:

National cycle route one, or at least the 32mile stretch that I use is perhaps fairly typical, except for the absence of hills. There are about 20 miles of path, and the rest is on rural roads, with not a lot of traffic, but you still need to keep an ear and an eye out for vehicles. It is important to realise that the path sections are shared with pedestrians and dog walkers , so a bell is useful to let people know you are there. Path surfaces vary from very good to acceptable. There is plenty of wildlife, and a fair bit of pathside vegetation to give some screening from the winds. Just occasionally you will see horse riders. All in all, one of my favourite rides.
