.. but what is this nonsense? (see #182651) - Cyclists Dismount sign where cars are obviously free to move around - on the way to new cycle parking in a car park just off Causewayhead, Penzance. (And why so far above the ground?)
NCN route 3 continues ahead, cyclists turning right to Penzance station are supposed to dismount to cross a car park.
Start of byway - I haven't tested it, but cyclists should be able to get through to the Helford River at the head of Porth Navas Creek.
Cyclists give way to everyone - on the bridleway constructed by the National Trust between Porthleven and the Penrose Estate
The coast road has totally washed away, so there's only a footpath ahead - or turn left for the cycle route to Loe Bar
Start of Grenna Lane, with sign (barely visible) warning of cyclists on the Cornish Coast-to-Coast Trail
Cyclists Dismount sign on what is shown on OpenCycleMap as a cycle route east from the Chacewater car park
Dangerous Crossing. No, really, that's the name of the place - just a normal staggered crossing of what was once the main road from Truro to Redruth.
The very narrow quiet lanes northwest of Truro have been closed to motor vehicles except for access - cue the familiar complaints about war on motorists etc.
NCN route 3 on the former Newham railway branch, Truro - sign for pedestrians to keep right (I think)
Cyclists not welcome on this farm - this would be a good route from Devoran to Carnon Downs and Truro
I'm not sure whether this really meant No traffic at all except to the Covid-19 vaccination site (now closed).
Buses and bikes only on a cut-off section of the A39 - and a cycle route sign to Falmouth, presumably via the byway to Perranwell Station.
Misleading sign - the only cyclists who would rejoin the carriageway are those who want to stay on the A3047 Treleigh bypass for some reason - most will obviously keep left to go through the village.
Cornwall's first mass vaccination centre for Covid-19 is in the middle of nowhere (Stithians Fairground) so cars are pretty much vital.
Cyclists Dismount signs on the bridge over the A30, Camborne - pointless, as the width doesn't change.
Start of paved route to the A30 underpass and Camborne - many people ignore the request and walk on the edge of the field.
Worrying road closure signs - in fact it refers to a side road, the main route to St Keverne was open.
The dead-end road is narrowed to a single lane here, but they still felt it necessary to put up Cyclists Dismount signs.
The promenade in Penzance is being improved - mainly due to storm damage, but also because the Tour of Britain is due to start here on 6 Sept 2020
Cornwall Council wanted to close this road to motor vehicles but were forced to repair it - but it's restricted and hardly any cars use it.
No right turn to the Royal Cornwall Hospital except local buses and cycles - but the marking on the road surface is buses only, and I don't know how many cyclists would want move across two lanes of motor traffic here.
Supposedly a dead end and unsuitable for motor vehicles - in fact a quiet route for cycles (with good brakes) into Mevagissey from the north.
New sign at the start of NCN route 3 (The Cornish Way) - 'The National Cycle Network starts and finishes here!'
One-way, no motor vehicles except for access - it would be nice if contraflow cycling could be permitted here.
At last the roadworks (with Cyclists Dismount and go somewhere unspecified signs) on the A30 have finished and there's a new rail/bus interchange - cyclists are told to dismount to cross to the station, and there's no indication at all that ... [more]
Skidden Hill (ie skidding...) - now one-way, but it would be nice if cyclists could go down this way to central St Ives.
Very small No Cycling sign on the National Trust's Trevose Head property - but you'd be unlikely to get this far with a bike anyway.
The old road is actually still viable for cyclists as an alternative to slogging up the hill on the A394
The Pedestrian Zone sign seems bizarre, but the road to the right would be traffic-free if the rising bollards were working.
If only Great Western Railway would concentrate on running trains on time rather than putting up silly No Bicycles signs etc.
Unenforceable nonsense in Mevagissey - cars are allowed to reach the parking, but cycling isn't allowed?
Beware Cyclists sign on the A30 approaching the very un-cycle friendly Hayle roundabout - but there's a footbridge in the middle distance which could be adapted for cyclists.
Potentially useful cut-through to central Penzance - and less useful 'No Motor Vehicles Except for Access' to the left which doesn't actually go anywhere.
A new one-way system with a cycleway under the St Ives railway branch (replacing a two-way road) has caused some controversy.
Cyclists Dismount sign on the footbridge, Wadebridge - the only alternative to the road bridge. What shame they didn't build it wide enough!
Cyclists Give Way to Pedestrians - if you can find this route, beyond Wadebridge's No Cycling car park, it's a good link to NCN route 32 (the Camel Trail)
No Cycling sign in a car park on what should be the obvious link to a riverside extension of NCN route 32 (the Camel Trail)
Cyclists Give Way to Pedestrians - if you can find this route, beyond Wadebridge's No Cycling car park, it's a good link to NCN route 32 (the Camel Trail)
No Cycling on a car park access road? Ridiculously negative attitude in Wadebridge, where this would be the obvious link to a riverside extension of the Camel Trail.
