Lap the Lake

A lovely, scenic route that starts and finishes at Caldecotte Lake.  During the lake’s excavation engineers discovered the skeleton of an Icthyosaur which can now be seen at Milton Keynes Central Library!  On this lovely traffic-free route you will also encounter the larger part of Caldecotte Lake, an important balancing lake that manages flood water on the River Ouzel just as it enters Milton Keynes. The lake is used by a number of local clubs for rowing and other water sports so you should have lots to look at whilst you're out on your bike! Not cycled for a while and looking for an easy way to get back in the saddle? Fancy a fun way to get your friends or kids riding? Our Easygoing rides are great for building confidence for all abilities and ages along relaxed, mostly traffic-free routes. They’re up to six miles long, with a gentle pace of around six miles an hour.
