Sketch Maps
The maps of the towns and other areas are:
Not always orientated to North
Diagrammatic Only - Not to Scale
Show only sufficient information to navigate by.
Use Direction signs to navigate along the routes and to select required route at junctions
Note not all signs within the text are "active"
if sign is "active" the mouse pointer will change to a hand and
will leadyou to the linked page.
All direction signs at bottom of each page are "Active"
Due to the complex pattern of these cycle routes there are many links within the guide
notes - hopefully after a lot of cross checking these are all working
correctly but if you find any do not work or are incorrect
please contact me here
