Breeze to Little Venice and Paddington Basin

A challenging ride to a different part of London from our usual haunts.
We will cycle up through Peckham and Walworth, crossing the river at Vauxhall Bridge. We will then ride through Belgravia, through Hyde Park and Bayswater to reach Paddington. We will have a look at some of the art installations forming part of the Paddington Art Trail and ride along the new developments of Paddington Basin, before reaching Little Venice. From there, it is a short ride along the Grand Union Canal to our coffee stop at the Grand Junction Cafe. (card payment only)
We will return through Paddington and Hyde Park to pick up the C3. We will cross back over the river at Blackfriars bridge and come home via the C10 and the Waterlink Way. This is a demanding ride for confident cyclists who are experienced in busy urban traffic. It is NOT a ride for beginners. You should be able to maintain a steady pace throughout so we keep to the timings referred to in the information details.
Please ensure you are dressed appropriately for the weather conditions and that your bike is in good working order. Make sure your details on your profile are up-to-date, in particular that we have a phone number for you. If you don’t have a mobile put your home number in the mobile phone box.
