I put the train-assisted bit up front to remind anyone planning to come to bring their Oyster/contactless cards with them. The ride was planned a month ago to go via Haggerston but those planned engineering works keep on coming and the line from Highbury and Islington to Shadwell will be shut on Saturday, wiping out the Haggerston arm at a stroke.
So instead the ride will meet at Canada Water library (SE16 7AR) at 10am and (as previously planned) take the Overground which is very good for bikes (spacious lifts and trains every 3-4 minutes) but this time to Shadwell. After that riders will head across to Mile End, partly on an upgraded CS2.
Then Regents Canal and Wapping Thameside as before. At Limehouse the ride will follow the Thames upstream to Tower Bridge. Then cross Tower Bridge and follow NR4 along the south bank back to Canada Water. Easy, flat, ride almost entirely on quiet roads and paths. Back to Canada Water at noon.
