This morning I was invited by Norwich City Council to a civic reception launching Bike Week 2012, where I represented: Cargo Cycles (my business), Norwich Bicycle Polo (which I run and I am a team member), and Norwich Alleycat (monthly) Bicycle treasure hunts (which I organise and run).
Norwich City Council in association with Norfolk County have produced a superb map of all the cycle routes in the city and immediate surrounding area.
The map is a traditional fold out style map (about the size of an O/S Landranger), but it is made from a durable water proof material. Sustrans National network route one is clearly marked, as are all of the cycle paths, and cycle routes. The map also lists all of the local cycle shops, points of general & historical interest, along with Services such as the police stations, Libraries, Bus station, Railway station, sports venues and various BMX tracks, cycle skills tracks and cycle speedway track.
On the reverse side of the map several of the linear routes through the city are represented schematically in much the same way as the London Underground map, and profiles of all the gradients in Norwich are also shown.
For once I think that Norwich City Council have done something right for the cyclist, both local and visiting, and if you are considering cycling through Norwich I highly recommend you buy a copy.
