Battersea Park and Power Station

This is a challenging ride to Battersea Park and Power Station..
We will ride to Battersea park via Crystal Palace, Brockwell Park and Clapham Common, cycling for the most part along quiet streets but also a few potentially busy roads and tricky junctions. You should be confident riding in urban traffic. Although there is some climbing, they are mostly long, slow climbs with some occasional steep bits. You must be able to use your gears efficiently for this ride and keep together with the group.
We will loop around the park and then go through the new Battersea Power Station development. From there it is only a short hop to our coffee stop at the Black Cab Coffee Company.
We will continue through Nine Elms as far as Vauxhall, before returning on the C5/C10 and the Waterlink way.
This is a long, demanding ride for experienced and confident cyclists. The coffee stop is quite a long way into the ride, so bring a snack and a drink. You should be able to maintain a steady pace throughout so we keep to the timings referred to in the information details.
Please call the leader, Jacqui Turner on 07456840924, if you have booked but there are problems on the day.
