The junction has been filled in for safety, but there really should have been a cycle bypass for NCN route 2
The only cycle parking at the De La Warr Pavilion is with these PlantLocks, which are too close to each other.
The seafront at Bexhill was the scene of the first British motor races - but it was also important for cycling.
The tedious and hilly on-road section of NCN route 2 between Winchelsea and Hastings. There really should be a coastal route through the country park to the left.

NCN route 2 stays on the road rather than the seawall here. The enjoyable, largely traffic-free, cycle route from Whitstable, via Margate, Broadstairs, Ramsgate, Sandwich, Deal, Dover, Folkestone, Hythe, Dungeness and Rye, has come crashing ... [more]
NCN route 2 towards Rye turns left onto the A259 - turn left in 200m to go via the village of Winchelsea.
NCN route 2 is briefly on the A259 to bypass Winchelsea (why?), but this sign does of course make drivers much more careful.
NCN route 2 turns left onto the A259, avoiding Winchelsea - but if you want to see the village you should go straight on (ie turn right) and then left.
NCN route 2 (from Winchelsea to Rye) turns left into the car park. The route ahead turns into a footpath but oddly there seems to be a Sustrans 'milepost' there.
Road crossing on NCN route 2, with Cyclists Dismount sign on the far side and an unused path to the Rother bridge on this side.
Route sign telling cyclists to stay on the road and turn right at the roundabout - although there's an obvious off-road option.
NCN route 2 turns left at the roundabout. It would be easy to take it off-road, but the local dog-walkers might object.
Sign for NCN route 2 on the road east from Rye. The route north would be a useful link too, either in the park or alongside.
The obvious route for NCN route 2 would be to leave the seawall here to follow the off-road route to Lydd
NCN route 2 crosses the road then supposedly follows it to Camber rather than the obvious route on the seawall
NCN route 2 crosses the coast road then rejoins it rather than taking the obvious route on the seawall
The off-road route from Lydd to Rye (NCN route 2) is in far worse condition in East Sussex than it was in Kent
The off-road route from Lydd to Rye (NCN route 2) is unpaved as soon as it leaves Kent and enters East Sussex

Cycle lanes were put in along the B2182 from Cooden into Bexhill several years ago, but with parking allowed. Originally you only got the odd car, now there is almost continual parking making using the cycle lane almost impossible. This p ... [more]
