Save money The AA calculates that cars cost their owners on average £2,358 a year BEFORE the cost of fuel. It is much cheaper to buy and maintain a bike than a car and you will be saving money on fuel too. You can save yourself money by switching to cycling. Every journey you replace will bring savings! Cycling is cheap, fun and easy to do. From a five minute potter to the shops or a ten minute ride to work, through to a fifty mile cycle, there are benefits and routes for all. Get in shape Cycling burns on average 240 calories an hour (at 10mph). Regular cyclists enjoy higher levels of overall fitness - a great benefit from a daily ride to work.

Combine your exercise time with transport by cycling to work.

By incorporating physical activity into your everyday routine you will reap the benefits. Cycling regularly can reduce the potential for illnesses associated with a sedentary lifestyle, including diabetes and cardiovascular disease. As an active commuter you will also save money and reduce your stress levels.

Cycling to workBikeabilityBikeability is designed to give quality skills and confidence over three important stages of a cyclist’s training:

• Level 1: Covers all aspects of training which will enable a cyclist to make a safe off road journey.

• Level 2: At the end of this training, a cyclist should be able to make simple journeys on quiet roads.

• Level 3: Builds on the basics learned in Level 2 and covers training which should enable the cyclist to have confidence to ride on busier roads in this country.

All Primary Schools in County Durham are offered Bikeability Cycle Training for year 5 pupils. For more info,visit: www.durham.gov.uk/roadsafety

Cycle training

Cycling to school

Cycling is one of the best forms of exercise for young people and is one of the top ways pupils say they would like to travel to school. Children who cycle to school can benefit from increased concentration and mental wellbeing. Having a healthier lifestyle, they are less likely to develop future health problems such as diabetes, asthma or heart disease. They also breathe cleaner air as the air inside a car can be three times as polluted as the air outside.

Cycling is a great alternative to driving and helps to reduce the congestion around the school, making the journey to school safer, healthier and more fun for everyone.

Cycling to school with your child instead of using your car could save you over £400 a year in fuel costs alone. It also helps you and your children get active, bringing you all health benefits.

Have consideration for pedestrians. Cyclists should be aware that not all people will be able to hear or see them and they should give all pedestrians room to move.

Cycle on roads with care and consideration for other road users. Ride in single file on narrow or busy roads and when riding round bends.

On shared use paths cycle with consideration for other users by slowing down, alerting walkers and giving them space when overtaking.

Park bikes at the designated cycle parking stands where possible. If your destination needs stands put a request in at www.ParkThatBike.info. Do not lock your bike onto other people’s private property.

Do not cycle on pedestrian ramps or steps – carry or push your bike, or use another route.

Do not cycle on pavements. If you need to use a pavement, you must push your bike. Police can issue fixed penalty notices to people (over the age of 10) who cycle on pavements. You can cycle on shared use paths which tend to be wider (2-3 metres) and will be signed and marked on this map.

The code of conduct for cyclists in Chester-le-Street town centre

Cyclists must respect the rules of the road, including one-way streets and traffic lights.

Stay alert to your surroundings. Do not use a mobile phone while cycling.

Be safe be seen – use bike lights at night and wear high visibility and reflective clothing. At night it is a legal requirement to have a white light on the front and a red light and red reflector at the back of your bike.

Tips for Drivers• Expect to see cyclists when you’re driving.

Numbers are increasing and it might even be someone you know!

• Overtaking: Cyclists can travel quickly – assess if you need to overtake. Be prepared to wait behind for a safe opportunity to overtake. Only overtake when you have enough room i.e. the same space you would give to overtaking a car.

• Cyclists require extra space when exerting more effort on hills and when travelling at speed going downhill.

• Cyclists may be travelling faster than you expect check carefully at side roads.

• Once parked, check over your shoulder (driver and passengers) before opening your car door for any passing cyclists.

• Cyclists are exposed to the elements so allow more room in wet and windy conditions, in bright sunlight and at night.

• Expect cyclists to be at least 1 metre away from the kerb. They are avoiding surface defects, debris, drains, puddles and maintaining a positive position on the road so you can see them.

• At junctions or in slow moving traffic expect cyclists to filter past on both sides of your vehicle and be extra vigilant when setting off, especially before turning.

• Drivers must respect the rules of the road, including indicating, speed limits and traffic lights.

Cycling tips• Watch for opening car doors of parked cars.

• Stay back from large vehicles. Watch for vehicles turning left across your path.

• Give walkers time to gather in children and get dogs under control.

• Carry a pump and puncture repair kit and good quality lock.

• Make sure your bike has a bell.

• Catch the driver’s eye when crossing junctions to ensure they have seen you.

• When cycling on the road look ahead for hazards such as potholes and parked vehicles.

Tips

To report a pothole visit www.durham.gov.uk/potholes

When buying a bike, it is important that it is the right one for you. You need to consider size, budget and the types of cycling you will be doing. The best way to ensure you get the right one is to buy from a specialist cycle shop and get expert advice.

By investing in, looking after and regularly using a good bike, you will save money on other types of travel. Check with your employer to see if they are running a salary sacrifice bike purchase scheme which offers tax benefits.

For further information on starting or returning to cycling, from buying a bike to route planning, email us at [email protected] for a free copy of Bike Easy - top tips and expert advice for the new cyclist by Peter Andrews.

Buying a bike

Make your bike as secure as possible by following the tips below:

• Always use a lock and make sure it is tightly fastened and not hanging loose.

• Use designated cycle parking stands. These are much more visible and you are less likely to have your bike stolen from these sites. If your organisation or local shop, church, community centre needs some cycle parking please visit www.ParkThatBike.info to request free cycle parking stands.

Locking your bike• Do not lock your bike

where it will cause an obstruction.

• Remember to secure your bike at home too – most thefts are from the home. Use a security marking kit and register your bike. Look out for “Operation Spoke” bike security marking events with Durham Constabulary.

• Use a D-lock and a second lock if possible.

Lock the frame and both wheels to the stand

Look after your bike

Basic maintenance checklist• Daily – lights and reflectors are still

working and clean and bright, brakes are efficient and gears are working correctly.

• Weekly – tyres are correctly inflated and the chain is properly adjusted and lubricated.

• Monthly – clean your bike with a bike specific cleaning product.

• Six Monthly – check all fixtures are secure (i.e. handlebars, saddle, wheels, pannier rack, lights etc), if there is movement clean off any dirt, oil the moving parts and tighten these up.

Guide for Cyclists• Show consideration to pedestrians on shared use paths.

• Slow down when approaching walkers and alert them with your bell or by giving a friendly call.

• Take care around young children, older people and dogs as their movements can be unpredictable.

• Give time for walkers to gather in children and get dogs under control.

• Travel at a speed that allows you to stop easily.

• Overtake slowly (stop pedalling if possible) and with plenty of space.

• Keep left and stay alert.

Guide for Walkers• Keep left and stay alert,

especially on inclines and round bends.

• Keep dogs on a short lead and under control.

• Try not to wander across the path.

• Leave space for cyclists and runners to overtake.

One-way traffic

Common signsCyclists must obey all road signs, including ‘Stop’, ‘Give Way’ and speed-limit signs. The following signs are particularly relevant for cyclists.

A shared path is used by walkers and cyclists and is identified by the blue shared use signs.

There are nearly 4.5 kms (2.5 miles) of shared use paths in Chester-le-Street which are often used by people commuting to work or school. Here are some tips to help you use and enjoy the routes.

Page 6: Why cycle?...Guide for Cyclists • Show consideration to pedestrians on shared use paths. • Slow down when approaching walkers and alert them with your bell or by giving a friendly

Types of InfrastructureThere are around 27 kms (17 miles) of cycle-friendly routes in and around Chester-le-Street town centre. These photos show some of the infrastructure you will find.

Bridleways and byways Brown routes are bridleways and byways and are free from car traffic (though there may be farm vehicles and 4x4s on byways). These are shared paths and cyclists must give way to walkers and horse riders. Surfaces will vary from earth/grass on unimproved paths across fields to tarmac. Mountain and hybrid bikes are best on these routes.

Cycle lanes Red lines on the map indicate an on-road cycle lane. Dashed white lines are advisory and indicate space for cycling but vehicles can enter when a cyclist is not present. Solid white lines are mandatory which vehicles cannot enter. All bikes are suitable on these routes.

Roads Cyclists can use roads marked in white on the map, except A1(M), but should be aware of vehicular traffic. All bikes are suitable for these routes.

Traffic free paths Green routes are free from car traffic. These routes can be railway paths, multi-user routes and shared use paths alongside the road. They are shared use by walkers and cyclists (and horse riders on railway paths and multi-user routes). Cyclists should show consideration to pedestrians and horse riders. Surfaces will vary but will predominantly

be surfaced (ash/tarmac). Mountain and hybrid bikes are most suitable on these paths, though certain surfaced sections may be usable on road bikes.

On-road cycle routes Blue routes indicate promoted cycle routes such as the National Cycling Network. As these are on-road cyclists should be aware of motor traffic. All bikes are suitable for these routes.
