The Richmond Park Cyclists group has produced an excellent new Code of Conduct for people cycling in the park.

The code was produced by the group in conjunction with Royal Parks, the park police, the Friends of Richmond Park and their own members.

I encourage cycling of all kinds in Richmond Park, whether for leisure, exercise or just getting from A to B.

Cycling in the park has become even more popular recently, so any measure to improve relations between different categories of park users is to be commended.

I am therefore delighted to endorse and promote the new Code of Conduct prepared by Richmond Park Cyclists.
