About us

Formed in 1998, Cycle Lewes is a membership organisation representing cyclists and cycling interests in the Lewes district. It is an independent non-political community group funded by membership subscriptions and donations. We regularly consult with our members on issues such as planning applications and new transport proposals & policies. and our views represent the majority of cyclists in Lewes & the surrounding villages. 

Cycling  is fun, healthy and good for the environment. Our aim is a town where everyone can move around safely, easily and enjoyably by bike, whatever their age and ability, and where cycling and walking are the first choices for journeys within the town.

Cycle Lewes works for:

• policies which encourage cycling (but not to the detriment of pedestrians and mobility-impaired people), especially those which form part of an overall strategy to reduce the impact of motor vehicles

• better transport, commuting and leisure facilities for cyclists

• better cycle routes and cycle parking and storage facilities

• a reduction in road danger especially to cyclists

• improved links with public transport operators
