Wet & Mudy ?? Depends which part - most of it is gravel cycle path shared with walkers.

Originally 'The Prince Albert'. Maybe they didn't want it named after a body piercing.

In the summer you can rent cycles adjacent the NT building (near the cycle stands) at Wicken Fen. The cafe there is good but I'd recommend parking your cycle in your eyeline unless you have secure locks (take your removable valuables off the cycle)-it gets very busy around those stands.

Accessed westbound via a sharp, narrow chicane just before the entrance to Anglesey Abbey. Using it eastbound requires crossing against the oncoming traffic at both ends. Fine for tourers, fast road cyclists are probably better sticking to the road.
