Resources

The internet is filled with cycle routes and maps for cyclists. Many have been carefully curated often by local councils with maps and leaflets being produced. You may well have seen some of these gathering dust in a local tourist information centre. In many cases the leaflets are provided as a PDF file on a website, but these are often buried away on a council website and are difficult to find. Rides provides a variety of ways of storing and presenting these
