Start/Finish Burgess Park (Fuorvito Cafe, Chumleigh Gardens, Off Albany Rd. SE5 0RJ). Start 10am, finish 1.30pm. Outward route will go via Vauxhall and Battersea Power Station to Battersea Park. Then across the park and on to the nice paths along the Battersea and Wandsworth riverside, eventually reaching Wandsworth Park. Coffee break in Wandsworth Park during return, but sadly no time for a round on the well-maintained Crazy Golf Course. If time, for those who wish to, will lead a further 1km to have a look at the rowers on the Putney Embankment. Return route has great contrasts. Back along the river to the bridge over Bell Lane Creek, the mouth of the River Wandle. Then head south into Wandsworth town centre along shared use pavement and across cycle crossings to avoid the traffic on the 1-way system. Next King George’s Park with a nice path by the Wandle. At the south end of the park, turn left and start heading home via Wandsworth and Clapham Commons. 28km, a lot of park and riverside is traffic free. Bruce leading. Route at https://goo.gl/94U3Ve.
