I’ll be at the Southwark Needle again, this Thursday 9th May, at 6.30pm. South end of London Bridge outside Evans. This time, I’ll head to the northside of the river and ride eastwards to Island Gardens, stroll through the tunnel to Greenwich, pedal up through the park, across Blackheath and down to the Waterlink Way, which I’ll follow for a bit. It connects with a few good cyclepaths that allow pleasant, traffic free pootling through Deptford and New Cross to South Bermondsey, where we will take a look at the recently opened Sustrans/Southwark bridge and then head back to the river to pick up the riverside route westwards. This time we may stop at a pub just before London Bridge (maybe the Angel or Old Justice, depending on the weather) for a quick drink before heading home.
Join me for as much, or as little of this 20 mile or so trip as you like. Jane 07826559603- NB: Some ride leaders prefer you to phone with any queries. However, not me because I can’t answer calls during the working day and don’t always hear my mobile if I am on the bike or busy. You will definitely get a reply if you text the number above.
