This is one of the "Plus" rides which last 90 minutes longer and go a bit further. And (mirabile dictu) the rain is supposed to have stopped by then.

The ride starts from outside Canada Water Library (SE16 7AR) and finishes in the same place at 1pm.

It's a circular ride to Battersea Park going out along Thames path, and then back along a slightly inland route. Outward route to Blackfriars Bridge, passing the new extension to Tate Modern. Then along part of the East-West Cycle Superhighway and on eventually to Chelsea Bridge.

We cross this to get to the coffee stop at excellent La Gondola Cafe in Battersea Park where the pastries are very good. Then back along south side of river including the interesting loop up and through Waterloo Station. Plenty to see on the route - Borough Market, Tate Modern, and the London Eye.

Route at http://goo.gl/6cFvhG. Leader Philippa.

  Thanks Penguin. It could be a coincidence. But after years of road safety being on the local agenda they finally put the crossings in months before Dulwich Estates regain the lease on The Grove. The Estate understands there is strong local interest in improving this area and we hope to be in a position to share some exciting updates in the near future. The temporary skatepark will remain unaffected. “Temporary skatepark” is telling.

  Back to my earlier post about familiarity. I was in Croydon this afternoon walking between the two main stations. Didn't feel unsafe, but there were some 'interesting' characters on the street. Not that any were bothered with me. Not a place I'd choose to go for a bit of a fun. Although having said that West Croydon has some cracking restaurants and the wonderfully named Saints and Sinners bar, where I once went on a corporate do - not that I did many of these. Whoops just checked and it closed a few months ago. Back on track, I never went to the Castle as I felt it was a bit rough. How wrong was I? Only real pub left in the area.

  Wow Sue! I was reading your post with interest as I’ve never really felt unsafe in London and I was born here. It was just your last paragraph that derailed me and totally changed the subject matter! So unnecessary.
