Pleasant and enjoyable ride whilst taking in the sights. Early morning is best time to avoid pedestrians, walkers exercising around the lake and people walking their dogs.

A bit cumbersome with the bike and more intended for hikers - easier to stay on the path. But a nice idea to make the surrounding a bit more varied.

Great place to run with a mixture of path types some super fast (MK Redways) and some smaller paths. Lots of places to stop to eat, buy food and art installations.
