Cycling in the Lake District by John C. Wood
Cycling in the Lake District features a wide range of routes, from short easy routes to a 30-mile all-day adventure. Some off-road routes are included, but on-road alternatives are provided for those who don't have mountain bikes. The routes are much more than just cycle rides: there are picnic sites for scenic breaks, viewpoints where you can take a breather, stately homes and museums to wander around - plus fascinating accounts of renowned Lakeland personalities to add interest. And whatever your ability, there's something of interest, from an easy 7-miler around Esthwaite to 30-mile all-day adventures around Buttermere, Coniston & Wastwater.
