Short (9 mile) flat ride exploring the South Bank from the London Eye to the Globe Theatre. Lots to see en route. Will use lots of cycleway and no tricky uncontrolled crossings. So suitable for anyone who has cycled a bit and great for learning some good routes.

Start finish at Peckham Square (Peckham Library, Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre) at 10am for a 9 mile circuit. Bruce leading and aiming to finish by 12.30.  Canal path to Cycleway 10. Follow this to the Old Vic, then Lower Marsh to the astonishing Graffiti Tunnel and through to the Eye. Take a break somewhere as we work along the river, probably at National Theatre. Return from Globe via back streets to C6 on Blackfriars Rd. Take this to Elephant and Castle then SE bypass route to Elephant Park. Hook up to C17 to Burgess Park then final 2km completely off road across park and up the Canal Path back to the start point in Peckham Square. Forecast is great. Everyone welcome. So come and join us. Route map at https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1rNkCYzSXBd-wgsFZmRVNJieLxsTzDBw&usp=sharing
