London cycle maps launched

Launch of new cycling route maps

The latest maps give wider coverage
Cyclists can now get their hands on the latest set of free maps which
cover 4,000km of cycle routes across London.
The 14 maps help riders identify the shortest routes or quiet roads in
any part of the city as well as stations with parking for cycles.

All London Cycle Guide routes have been ridden and recommended by
experienced riders.

The launch comes a month before London Freewheel when people can cycle
a 14km traffic-free route in central London.

Charlie Lloyd, of the London Cycling Campaign which helped create the
maps, said they provided a useful aid to cyclists.

"The wider coverage of the new edition cycle guides is exactly what we
need."

The maps are available from the TfL website.

Not very good- the journey planner would send me down a closed road
and it seems to prefer slower, quieter routes.
