Saturday 25 July the weather is forecast as perfect for a picnic. Sunday is drizzle. Our ride on Saturday will take the Waterlink Way to Deptford then the C10 to Burgess Park for a picnic lunch. We will forage in the big Tesco beside the park and sit down near the cafe in the park. After lunch we return to Croydon via Kennington Park and Oval, then the C5 which takes us through Clapham Common and Tooting Bec Common. No climbs. Apart from some easy earth path in South Norwood Country Park all surface is smooth, so the ride is road bike compatible.
It is 29 miles. Start from Queens Gardens CR0 1GY at 10am. Return at 4pm. Bring a water bottle. Please bring a spare inner tube.
