Cycling and Cycle
Lanes
Cheshire East is perfect for cycling, not too flat, not too
hilly, and some very picturesque countryside along the way.
Within the area we have a number of routes that are part of the
National Cycle Network and numerous other localised routes, many of
which are circular.
Cycling for Health
Experts recommend being active for 30 minutes a day, five times
a week. Cycling improves strength, stamina and aerobic fitness,
with little risk of over-exertion. It does not pose such a risk to
joints as some other forms of exercise such as jogging. Cycling
just 20 miles a week can reduce the risk of coronary heart disease
by 50%, and cycling at 10 miles an hour will burn off 400 calories
every hour. So what are you waiting for?
