Blackfriars, Camden Town, Paddington, Hyde Park, Mayfair, Clapham Junction

A ride that skirts the West End before boldly riding through Mayfair and St James. Starting at Blackfriars, we cycle to St Pancras’ Granary Square and the Regents Canal, then take the towpath to Camden Town. Back on road, on to Regents Park Outer Circle and St Johns Wood and Maida Hill for the Grand Union Canal to Paddington. Then it’s Hyde Park and Mayfair where we lunch. Food and drink options are Tesco in Curzon Street then Mount Street Gardens al fresco or a choice of cafes in Curzon Street. Then through more of Mayfair and St James and Westminster on the way to Battersea Park. Then it’s the Thames Path and Clapham Junction to end the ride.

It’s a 19 mile ride, more or less flat. Road bikes are fine. You will need to be able to ride towpaths safely. Please bring a spare inner tube.

Meet outside Blackfriars Station north end at 10:30 (the exit from the platform is past the front of the train). We will finish around 3pm.
