Start 9.30am at Cutty Sark, next to the tunnel entrance. Note the early start. Hope to finish back at Greenwich at 1.30, but with this new route not certain about timing so please allow for possible 2pm finish. Route out: round Thames path to London Cable Car (Emirates Airline no more), fly across, on to Beckton Corridor off road path and round past Beckton Alps, bit of cycle path and back streets to Wanstead Park. Return across Wanstead Flats, quiet streets to Olympic Park, Hertford Union Canal, Regents Canal Towpath/Mile End Park, west side of Isle of Dogs to the Greenwich Foot Tunnel. If the lifts are working, complete ride by crossing to the Cutty Sark. If not, end the ride at the tunnel. Riders who wish to cross will be guided to Mudchute DLR Station where there is step free access. There is also step free access at Greenwich DLR station. Note this is a long route with a lot of continuous riding. We will be at our usual easy pace, but probably cycling for 3 hours +. You get a rest on the Cable Car (remember to bring some way of paying the fare) and a coffee break. Nevertheless worth bringing a snack and a drink.
If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place. How to cancel link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/help/en-gb/articles/575010/how-to-cancel-your-free-registration/
