Turned up along with about twenty other keen cyclists of all ages, including our vicar, Ruth, to witness the official opening of the Sawston to Whittlesford cycleway this morning. The old path was impossible for cyclists and pretty iffy for people on foot, with roots breaking up the surface and steep inclines over the footbridges. The work has been paid for by the county council, supported by the local landowner, and it is brilliant, with the path curving round the fields, past the parish church and over to Sawston.We voted it through at the district council planning committee, though there were some concerns that school children using the route would have to be careful crossing the busy Sawston by-pass.
