Photos from a pleasant bike ride round Swindon on 18th September 2005, to promote Car Free Day and route 45 of the national cycle network. We started at Coate Water, followed the Old Town railway path to West Swindon, through Toothill and Grange Park to Sunday Lunch at the Forrester's on Purton Road. Then back to Coate Water via the River Ray Parkway, Barnfield, Hawksworth , the town centre, the Magic Roundabout and Queens Drive.
