Bit of an unusual weekend coming up. It’s a bank holiday. And it is Freecycle weekend when, on Sunday 26th, a large loop of central London roads will be closed to motor traffic. This is a great event and especially suitable for families with younger children. Southwark Cyclists will be running a feeder ride starting in Peckham Rye Park at 10am. Ride is fully marshalled to ensure safety. Details at https://lcc.org.uk/events/freecycle-southwark-feeder-ride/, Details of whole Event at https://www.ridelondon.co.uk/our-rides/ridelondon-freecycle. On the 25th May we have just 1 ride planned, details below. NOTE. Please register on Eventbrite so we can limit numbers, link below. London Bridge to Kensington Palace. < https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/london-bridge-to-kensington-palace-cycle-ride-tickets-910075820277 > Ride round all the big tourist spots with Jamie leading. Start/finish Southwark Needle, south side of London Bridge close to London Bridge Station. Start 10am for an estimated 3 hour ride. Route west along south side of river then over Westminster Bridge down Birdcage Walk up Constitution Hill across Wellington Arch into Hyde Park and along to Kensington Palace for coffee break.
Return up Hyde Park West Carriage Drive, along Serpentine and up to Speakers Corner. Then back down to Wellington Arch and on to Buckingham Palace, down The Mall, through Horse Guards and across Parliament Sq to the Embankment. Left onto the cycle lane (CS3) along The Embankment with finish past Monument and over London Bridge. Flat ride with lots of path and cycle lane suitable for any level of cyclist. 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 (note there is a lot of shared path on this ride). If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place.
