Information form Ride Leader Jean. It is a long ride (22 Miles) so bring drinks and snacks.

Starting from London Bridge (Gateway Needle, south side), we take Tooley Street to Tower Bridge, where we cross the river and follow the CS2 through Whitechapel and Mile End, to Bow, where we access the Lea Navigation path, following it up to Hackney Marshes, at Markfield Park, where we stop for a break. On the return trip, we cross briefly to the other side of the canal, coming down through Hackney Marshes, and then we retrace our steps, passing by Bow and continuing to the Limehouse Cut, which brings us down to Limehouse, from where we return to Tower Bridge, and London Bridge.

Depart: London Bridge 9.30am.    Return: 2.30pm

Riders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Same for “adults at risk”. Always give way to pedestrians and to other cyclists so all path users feel safe.  If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place.

Note. Ride reports, often with photos and route maps, are posted to the Southwark Cyclists web site, yearly index at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/.  Future/provisional ride ideas can be viewed on our planning spreadsheet.
