Cycling

West Cumbria Cycle Forum

The West Cumbria Cycle Forum was set up seven years ago to try and help to develop cycling in West Cumbria. Over the years they have delivered a number of bike events from the 100 mile challenge to beginners and family rides on the new traffic free cycle paths in the area. On top of this they have also been involved in consultation for the Cumbria Cycle network, guidance for farmers when hedge cutting and assisted in pulling funding together for a Cycling 4 Health three year project.

This project has now come to an end and it's time to look at the future plans for Cycling in Allerdale and Copeland. There are plans for a public workshop for all those involved in cycling to have their say on the priorities, whether it's economic through routes such as the C2C or the Hadrians route or it's developing club cycling or promoting the new routes, we want to know. So watch this space for details!
