Summary

Cycling remains one of the most popular leisure activities in Britain today, and more people are taking up the sport, whether for leisure enjoyment for all the family, or for health and environmental reasons. In London and the South East, because of the congested and dangerous roads, there is a growing need for a useful guide to safe, traffic-free cycling around the area. Cyclists living in the area want quick, easy access to a range of enjoyable new cycling routes where they can quickly escape from their usual crowded environment and explore quiet routes in attractive natural or man-made surroundings. Cycling Traffic Free, by experienced author and cyclist Jules Selmes, brings together twenty-five of the best routes in London, and offers practical general advice for the cyclist, clear instructions for each route, a useful diagrammatic map, suggestions on where best to park or start the trip, distance, gradients and hills, places of interest, and suggested refreshment stops along the way or close to the route.
