cycle routes in cornwall

Bissoe Tramways Cycle Hire in Cornwall is situated in the heart of the Cornish mining heritage. Why not enjoy a day cycling along historic mineral tramway and railways free from traffic. The Cycle route goes from the ancient quays at Devoran on the south coast of Cornwall to the harbour at Portreath on the North Cornish coast, along the old Mineral Tramways which is an interesting ride for the average cyclist. You can hire one of our mountain bicycles or tandems, trailers. We can offer bicycle servicing to ensure that your bike is kept in top condition.

There's also an internet cafe, which they forgot to mention on their Web site,  with Callestick Ice cream on hand to pamper your taste buds.  As well as bike hire, they have a great line in  bike sales & reasonably priced (I bare personal witness - Web master) bike maintenance.
