A tribute walk was held in memory of local cyclist and campaigner Mike Gough last weekend. 

On Saturday, July 14, walkers set off on the self-guided route alongside the River Great Ouse through the Huntingdonshire countryside from St Neots to Huntingdon. 

Richard Slade, mayor of St Neots, Cllr Stephen Ferguson and John Morris, leader of Hunts Walking and Cycling Group were among a number of walkers to embark on the 11-mile route. 

The route followed the River Great Ouse long distance footpath via Little Paxton, Paxton Pits Nature Reserve, Offords, Buckden Marina, Brampton Mill, ending at the Sebastopol Cannon garden on George Street Huntingdon. 

Mike, 65, from Rodney Road in Huntingdon, died when his bicycle was struck by a van on George Street on March 16.

He was a founder member of Hunts Walking & Cycling Group and a passionate campaigner for more cycle infrastructure and safer streets for all road users.

Last month, Mike's family spoke to The Hunts Post about their wish for urgent action to improve road safety in the district following his death.

It follows a candlelight vigil which was held for the former owner of Roadies Cycles in Hartford, Huntingdonshire, on June 29. 

It offered residents the chance to pay their respects to Mike and stand together in memory of all victims of road crashes in Cambridgeshire and their families.

Hosted at the Sebastopol Cannon, a ghost bike was unveiled in tribute to Mike and all victims of road traffic crashes in Cambridgeshire.
