The UK registered charity, Sustrans, has created the brilliant National Cycle Network for the whole British Isles. As well as being a great way to travel and good for your health, the growing Network makes an important contribution to improving the environment, and also helps you have more possibilities to reduce your carbon footprint. Cycling on the Network is on a mix of on-road and traffic routes.
