Holland Park & Shepherd's Bush; plus optional yoga session

A leisurely urban ride, exploring some of the varied architectural and social landscapes of West London. We take quiet suburban roads from Ealing, through Turnham Green and Ravenscourt Park, skirting around the edge of Hammersmith and coming into Holland Park for a brief pause.
Then we will turn up towards Ladbroke Grove and ride through the elegant roads of Kensington to reach Shepherd’s Bush Green with its buzzy atmosphere. We will stop to sample the delicious cakes and pastries in one of the independent Middle Eastern cafes.
Our return ride takes us through Acton Park and Ealing Common.

On our return to Ealing, we will have the option of learning some gentle yoga stretches for cyclists from yoga teacher Giuseppina (http://www.my-yogasite.com/ https://www.facebook.com/myyogasite/?ref=hl) who will meet us at Walpole Park and show us how to take care of those cycling muscles!
