This is where cyclists want parking - by the café on the town side of Asda - not at the rear in the car park.

I think all the crossings here are Toucans, allowing cyclists on NCN route 3 to change sides.

Dropped kerb and route sign (up on the tree) where cyclists on NCN route 3 used to come off the road, before the shared-use route was extended to the crossings at Asda.

Byway - this just loops back to Leedstown, but is an alternative to the B3302

Trevemper footbridge is used by the public, although it is not shown on Cornwall Council mapping as a public right of way, bridleway or road. It is, however, in Cornwall Council’s ownership so it is obliged to maintain it. Not a lot of use, … [more]

The lane from Carbis Bay to Lelant - perhaps a better option than the shared-use path which leaves cyclists on the congested main road through Lelant.

No Cycling on this path past Lelant church to the beach

No Cycling on this footbridge over the railway - I'm not sure you could legally get a bike to this point anyway.

There are no bike stands here, despite the obvious need in central Truro - these bikes are on their own stands.

The road from the A30 to Zelah has been closed to motor traffic and made cycles-only (NCN32) during the A30 dialling works. The cycle light changes at the same time as the main light so is a bit pointless.

NCN route 3 in Newlyn - the road narrows to a single lane in places, but cyclists can generally keep going.

Road cut by the A30 Penzance bypass, but there's still a cut-through and crossing to the youth hostel, which could be improved as a useful cycle route.

Cycling Prohibited sign - but it's ok for a car to be parked there.

Road closure for Mazey Day in Penzance - several roads were blocked like this, with the normal signs just beyond.
