History

Since its beginning in 1992 KDCS has been a community/voluntary organisation. It began with the aim of promoting cycling in all forms, for work, shopping, school or leisure in and around Kendal. KDCS undertook campaigning over a number of years to promote better facilities, cycle routes and rights for cyclists.
