A £2.25 million project has been launched to get people in the Peak District cycling more often.
The Pedal Peak District project, aimed at both residents and visitors, is offering information about maps, routes and the health benefits of cycling via a website.
There are also opportunities to win prizes for completing small, manageable goals.
The project, which is run by the Peak District National Park Authority and funded by the Department of Transport through Cycling England, also includes plans to create a new cycling route from Bakewell to Buxton.
This will involve re-opening four former railway tunnels that have been closed to the public since the 1960s.
Most of the £2.25 million funding will be used to construct the new route, which it is hoped will open in spring 2011.
Everyone who signs up at www.pedalpeakdistrict.co.uk and completes a short survey will be entered into a monthly prize draw to win a bike worth £300
