The April 16 edition of Cycling Weekly magazine is themed around issues of cycling accessibility, and the pertinence of the topic has been highlighted by recent research revealing that millions of people in Britain – who could be reaping the myriad health, fitness and financial rewards that cycling brings – do not have access to a bike simply because they can't afford one.
