Each of the four counties Cycle England covers are totally unique. They all enjoy a rich tapestry of cycling networks and offer their own distinctive attractions and geography. Find out more about each region here:
In England’s most north-westerly corner lies Cumbria, a beautiful county which is home to two UNESCO World Heritage sites, three Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and over 100 miles of rugged coastline which have attracted outdoors enthusiasts for generations.
Lincolnshire is situated in England’s East Midlands, running from the Humber Estuary down to The Wash, and is one of the country’s most welcoming but least discovered cycling destinations.
Stretching right up to the Scottish Borders in the north-east corner of the country, Northumberland is nicknamed ‘the Secret Kingdom’ as it’s the least populated county in England and contains a wealth of hidden treasures.
Yorkshire is the largest county in Britain with a population greater than Scotland. It enjoys an exceptional variety of landscapes, from the flatlands of the east and the rolling valleys of the Wolds, through to more hillier areas such as the Dales and North York Moors.
