Richmond Park to Osterley Park House

This ride does start at 9.00 but I will wait for 5 minutes so we are off by 9.00 as the idea is to have finished by between 12.30 and 1.00 as the cake and coffee is towards the end of the ride, you can decide how long or short to make this.

We meet at the top of Richmond Park and Cycle out of the park via the Ham gate and into Ham and down to the Thames and the south bank of the Thames path to Richmond and the Richmond Weir where we cross the Thames, we then make our way to Syon Park, home of the Dukes of Northumberland. Then out to the mouth of the River Brent at Brentford and onto the canal towpath of the Grand Union Canal. We will pass many barges and then progress up the Hanwell flight of locks to Osterley, then its via Osterley lane into Osterley Park itself, one of the National Trust's London gems. Out of the park via quiet roads to Isleworth and on to St Margaret's and into Marble Hill Park and Back via the Thames path north bank to Richmond and the park.

Please remember to bring money for coffee, spare tubes, a pump, tyre levers and something to drink and eat whilst out on the ride.
