The health effects of an inactive life are serious. Inactivity accounts for over a third of deaths from heart disease and threatens the progress made in this area over many years. Added to this is the disease, disability and poor mental health that come from growing levels of obesity and a lack of physical strength. Physical inactivity has been called the 'silent killer of our time'.

Why Sustrans? - Prevention is better than cure.

Why cycle?

Good for you - Cycling at least twenty miles a week reduces the risk of heart disease to less than half for non-cyclists who take no other exercise.

Good for your wallet - A good bycycle will last for years, if not decades.

Good for your world - Bicycles produce absolutely no pollution.
