Salisbury Cathedral (left), and Winchester Cathedral (right) ALL 42 Church of England cathedrals are set to be linked by a new 2,000-mile loop route. The route, which will run from Newcastle to Truro, will be launched with a relay ride from Newcastle Cathedral to coincide with the Worlds Biggest Bike Ride on Sunday, May 30. Salisbury Cathedral will be part of legs 25 and 25 of the relay - from Winchester to Salisbury and from Salisbury to Exeter. It is all thanks to a unique partnership between the Association of English Cathedrals, the British Pilgrimage Trust, Cycling UK and Sustrans in a new initiative to promote greener travel and mental and physical wellbeing.
