National Trust launches cycling festival

British news logo

Over 40 National Trust properties across England, Wales and Northern Ireland will host cycling events over July 16-24 as part of the organisation's inaugural cycling festival.

The festival is part of the National Trust's initiative to get more people out into the countryside - the charity is responsible for the conservation and running of 250,000 hectares and 300 historic houses, so is ideally placed to host events.

Nigel Wynn
Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
