Sustrans' Traffic-Free Cycle Rides
Offering a unique glimpse into the UK's remarkable landscapes, history, culture and architecture, the rides in this guide range from the wild and ethereal mountain tracks of Snowdonia to fairytale woodland trails through the Forest of Dean and elegant city centre paths linking London's Royal Parks and palaces.

Sustrans' Circular Day Rides North
This brand new collection of 75 circular day rides ranging between 20-30 miles follow parts of the National Cycle Network, quiet lanes and byways across a variety of surfaces. These rides are a great way to explore the northern half of the UK and take in spectacular scenery from the saddle. Most of the rides begin and end at a train station making them very accessible. This book is intended for intermediate to experienced cyclists and rides range from easy to difficult. A map, route profile and text directions are provided for every ride, plus a list of places to eat and drink along the route and nearby bike shops and hire.
Cycle Infrastructure Design
Encouraging more people to cycle is increasingly being seen as a vital part of any local authority plan to tackle congestion, improve air quality, promote physical activity and improve accessibility. This design guide brings together and updates guidance previously available in a number of draft Local Transport Notes and other documents. Although the focus is the design of cycle infrastructure, parts of its advice are equally appropriate to improving conditions for pedestrians. Individual chapters cover: general design parameters; signing issues; network management; reducing vehicle speeds on cycle routes; bus and tram routes; cycle lanes; off-road cycle routes; junctions; cycle track crossings; cycle parking; public transport integration. A list of references and an appendix of related publications complete the book. It is hoped that, by bringing together relevant advice in a single document, this guide will make it easier for local authorities to decide what provision, if any, is required to encourage more people to cycle.
