  1. Considering doing this route as my first cycling holiday - it's one of the
    flatter National Cycle Routes? Anyone done an easier one? I have 6 days - do
    the railways allow bikes on board ok? Any suggestions as to books or sites,
    booking b&b accommodation would be most appreciated. Thanks

    I strongly advise booking your rail journey and stressing that you also have
    a bike. Until recently, I had not encountered any problems transporting my
    bike on trains in most areas of the UK. In many instances I'd just turn up
    at the station and buy a ticket. However, it's the school holidays and peak
    touring season, the available spaces might well be booked - it all depends
    on the date and time of travel.

    I'm sure that there's a Sustrans map of the route that you want to ride.

    The Sustrans map also has, if it's similar to the ones that I have, contact
    details for tourist information centres who could book accomodation for you.

    Not too many of the NCRs have books/guides written for them - C2C, Reivers
    Route, and The Transpennine Trail spring to mind.

    Have a look at the Sustrans web site. www.sustrans.org.uk to see what's
    available from them.

    Enjoy the ride.
