The 800-mile "Great North Trail" goes between the Peak District and the far north coast of Scotland.

"About 98% of the route is on existing off-road cycle routes, forest roads and low traffic minor roads."

Odd definition of new. Guess we should be grateful for the 2% and relabelling of the rest!

That said, it'd be awesome to ride it all the way!
