Cody Dock is one of those places that is guaranteed to renew your faith in the human race!  Come and find out why. Amanda leading. Here are her notes on the ride. “Cody Dock is open and looking forward to our visit.  The dock is in a bit of a state though as a new cafe is being built where that old ship was and there is a lack of seating (temporary cafe is now situated at the main entrance.  There is a porta-loo.  Route: Thames Path – O2 – Thames Barrier – Woolwich Ferry – City Airport – Beckton Park – Greenway – River Lee Path – Three Mills – Cody Dock – Canning Town/Bow Creek – Dollar Bay – Mudchute – Island Gardens.

“The cross river tunnels:  At Woolwich one of each of the lifts (North or South are out of action to discourage users) so I suggest we wait for the free Woolwich Ferry on the outward leg.  On the return Northside- Island Gardens, some could take the DLR to Greenwich if the lifts are out.

Route: 17.5 miles  3.5 hour ride with ½hour stop at CD  (I rode the route in just under two hours).  Fairly flat ride, with a few bridges to up and over.”
