12 of us set off from the SEC on a very chilly but very sunny morning and circumnavigated the city centre, as shown on the Strava map above (with thanks to Carol) and the Cycle Travel Map, https://cycle.travel/map/journey/782905 provided by Andy.

It is great to see this fantastic website back up and running – https://www.cyclingfallacies.org/.
Don’t be fooled by common myths about cycling – use the explanations on the site to help spread the truth!
The site has been created in order to collate all the facts and arguments about cycling for transport. While there are a great many blogs, articles and videos explaining these concepts, they can often be difficult to keep track of and link to.
If you’re a cycle campaigner, you’ll probably have come up against the same old arguments time and time again. There are many myths about cycling, which are widespread and often believed, without any basis in fact. So the site hopes to make it easier for cycle campaigners to win the argument by providing a quick response to these myths.
This site has been made possible due to the hard work of volunteers, and with support from the Cycling Embassy of Great Britain.
