Milton Keynes & London - England
Milton Keynes is lucky to have such fantastic redway paths, perfect for cycling off-road. The route for the launch of Cycle Your Heart Out in July 2011 (route 1) was created specially to allow people of all ages and abilities to take part. Children as young as 8, and recent round the world cyclist Sean Conway have completed it, showing you that anyone can do it!
