Mostly gravel but ground can be muddy in winter in places The gravel paths around Grovebury pit have now officially designated as available for cycling by Central Bedfordshire in 2024 - But the access gates still need to be made more cycle friendly as currently you must tip your bike on the back wheel to get it through the kissing gates

This local access route is part of the BuzzCycles prompted Inner Green Wheel, its runs along a shared used cycle path in Pages Park which is as well as green space contains a children's play area

This part of Grovebury Road is a one way buses only link. As of 2023 as two-way cycleway has been provided to unable you to travel both ways by foot or cycle

Meeting point for Leighton Buzzard Road Cycling Club (http://lbrcc.com/) and a monument to Leighton Buzzard's history. This work of art, by David Mayne, was officially unveiled September 2005 and has the title of 'Fly Past'. The monument is approximately 8 feet high and 8 feet wide and the design depicts the heritage of the town to the present day. The centre of the design represents the propeller of a Vimy bomber biplane which were constructed until 1919 at the Morgan & Co. factory at Vimy Road (i.e. the land where the current Tescos supermarket is sited). Surrounding the propeller are a number of disks, each of which carry designs (on both sides), representative of the towns heritage (see photos below). The designs on these disks were the result of workshops with the pupils of Leighton Middle School, the Leighton Buzzard Arts Society and the residents of Tudor Court. A circular ring of carved paving runs around the base of the monument containing the name of the town at various different points in history.
