This ride starts and finishes at Herne Hill. If you are not sure about the meeting point please message the ride leader.
You should bear in mind that there are some challenging aspects on this ride to Barnes.
We'll ride over Clapham common as far as Wandsworth common and drop down towards the river, crossing over at Wandsworth bridge. Quiet roads and through the Bishop's park to reach Fulham palace. We'll continue along the Thames path as far as Hammersmith bridge which we'll cross to reach Barnes and our coffee stop. Don't forget to message the ride creator that you have read the ride information or you may find your place is cancelled. Thank you.
We'll return via the Thames path as far as Battersea before the schlepp up to Clapham back to Herne Hill.
A few hilly bits between Clapham and Wandsworth, but not steep, whereas on the return there's a couple of stinkers. Mostly quiet roads but a few busy sections, and an unavoidable nasty junction at Putney so you should be confident in traffic and be able to keep up with the pace. There are a couple of places where we'll have to wheel our bikes and some stretches of unpaved compacted gravel surfaces.
