Cycle Hayling now has its own page on our website - see tab to the left
We have a new group of cyclists forming on Hayling Island, following the recent Hayling Island Residents’ Association’s (HIRA) public meeting, which highlighted the opportunities (and lost opportunities!) available to cyclists in and around the Island.
The meeting included presentations by Nick Farthing, Sustrans Regional Manager for Hampshire and the Isle of Wight and Paul Fisher, Chairman of HIRA, who highlighted the need for a safe leisure bridge crossing over Langstone Harbour and the upgrade of the Island section of the Billy Trail.
The group is led by Islander Sue Underwood and she is initially spearheading the campaign to get as many cyclists as possible to attend the opening of the new Langstone bit of the Billy trail, from Mill Lane to opposite the Ship, on Friday 26th February, attended by David Willetts, MP for Havant and Simon Pratt, Regional Director for Sustrans. The idea is to let those present know the importance of and how strongly we feel about the way the southern next part of the National Cycling Route should be developed.
It would be very helpful if as many Paris to Hayling riders attended as possible.
