Welcome to the Cornish Volunteers Ranger site .. did you know there is a secret army in every county looking after the National Cycle Network trails?

Cornwall is no exception, so if you feel as passionately about cycling as we do and have some spare time, perhaps you'd like to come and join us?

Meanwhile check out the newly posted advertisement at the request of Simon on the 'Other Events' page or click below ..

If you buy your books through Amazon Kindle, using the link below, then the commission that Amazon pay for the advertising space will go towards
the Kernow Wheels 4 All facility .. please help us to help others in Cornwall., the specialised bikes that we need are expensive and need to be maintained!!

MEANWHILE HAPPENING ON THE COAST NEAR YOU ..

Graeme Willgrass, is a Sustrans Ranger just over the border, left home on Monday 2nd May 2011 to cycle 4000 miles around the mainland UK to raise money for the charity www.sustrans.org.uk. Sustrans have created 12,000 miles of National Cycle Network, one third of which is traffic free, enabling people of all ages and abilities to enjoy stress-free travel to work & school, as well as leisure activities in a peaceful ,low-carbon way. Why 'Cycle for Health'? Four years ago, Graeme suffered a major breakdown, losing everything in the process, including his teaching career. Very slowly, this is changing and are beginning to take effect. Exercise and cycling in particular are a big part of this. Graeme has always done lots between bouts of illness, but this is now part of managing and progressing his life. Mental health is still an area of great fear and stigma, but it needn't be. So, he has a plan (gulp!) for what will be the biggest adventure of his life. Please visit his Just Giving page and help him reach his target, email him or wave if you see a funny looking bike pulling a trailer as it will probably be Graeme., there are not too many people who use a trailer with a folding bike after all.

Volunteer Rangers

Currently we look after the Cornish Way and all work days and other events that rangers are involved with, will be published here on this website as well as Cornwall Council's. To advertise any additional events whether Sustrans orientated or simply something their rangers are either involved with or running, please contact webmaster@csvr.info

The county is split into several areas when it comes down to the maintenance of the various trails which form part of the National Cycle Network. Wherever you live, we can put you in touch with someone in your area who can then get you involved ..

We have fun times as well as working parties, including weekends away where we can meet other rangers from other regions around the country and the only cost -- time if you have some spare you want to use productively and basic expenses for accommodation etc. when we go away!

Come and join us, get involved and help us to make a difference so others can enjoy our trails too ..
