Google River View and Cycle Closer to Nature

This Daily Telegraph article describes a  project to map the towpaths and rivers of the UK.
This will produce a Google Street View-like result.

I have just finished a project which was part of the Mission:Explore range of challengers, and related to the use of cycle paths in the major cities of the UK. The missions are produced in association with ARLA and SUSTRANS.

If you visit the MISSION:EXPLORE website you will see a range of badges called Cycle Explorers under the badge of CYCLE CLOSER TO NATURE.
They have been produced for a number of cities.

• Bristol
• Cardiff
• Doncaster
• Exeter
• Leeds
• Leicester
• Reading
• Stroud
• York 
• or anywhere on the National Cycle Network.
