Following on from the successful Art Deco Architecture ride in April, Eva has now designed a ride to buildings in modern Brutalist style. This is a long ride so we are starting at the slightly earlier time of 9.30. Start/finish will be at Greenwich Station, outside on Greenwich High Rd next to the Novotel (SE10 8JQ). Ride should take 4 hours with a coffee break. So back at approximately 1.30 pm. From Greenwich will take the DLR across the river to Mudchute. It will be possible to join the ride at Mudchute DLR Station at 9.45. Please indicate on the registration form if you intend to do this. Route incorporates failed social housing (Robin Hood Gardens), social housing association (Glenkerry House), famous (Balfron Tower, Barbican) and 2 outstanding public buildings – Salters Hall and Guildhall – at the end. See attached list. Mostly quiet streets, Including stretches of Q13 and Q1. Some busy junctions where we will use pedestrian crossings. Last stretch back to Greenwich uses Cycleway 10 (Q1). Riders will be able to peel off on this stretch to make their way home. Route map.
