The yurts are such a surprise, tucked away near the Limehouse Link. They house a Social Enterprise Community Cafe operated by The Royal Foundation of St Katharine. If you have never been there, try to join this ride. If you have been there before, then you will probably want to return! Start 10am Peckham Square, next to Peckham library and Peckham Pulse Leisure Centre. Outward route going over Tower Bridge, through St Katherines Dock to Wapping, then turning onto CS3 for a tiny bit to get to the Yurt Cafe. Coffee break there then return through Limehouse Basin, Ropemakers Field, on to the Thames Path and cut across to Mudchute DLR (bring Travel Pass or equivalent). Alight Greenwich station and go along Greenwich High Rd the short distance to Cycle way 10, then follow this several miles to Abercorn Way, then left to Glengall Road and the Canal path to Peckham Square. Plan to be back by 1pm. Amanda leading.

Interesting route getting to unique cafe. After break return on different, also very interesting route. Short ride on the DLR - very easy with bikes.

Lots of off-road Thames path and some segregated cycle lanes and quiet streets.

Several short stops at places of interest and longer coffee stop at the Yurt Cafe.

Just yourself and your bike.

First-timers welcome!
