Breeze to Summer Solstice at Richmond Hill

A circular route from West Harrow to Richmond Hill to watch the sunset on the longest day of the year.

We will meet in front of the bike racks outside the cafe (Syd’s Pizzeria & Coffee Shop) in West Harrow Park. There is a free carpark which can be accessed via Wilson Gardens. Nearest underground station is West Harrow (on the Metropolitan Line) and only a few mins walk away.

Starting from West Harrow Park we will ride to Richmond Hill passing via Northala Fields, Osterley House and Syon park.

The majority of the ride is on quiet residential roads, cycle paths and canal towpaths. Although there are a couple of a couple of brief sections on busier roads.

We will stop for about 1 hour at Richmond Hill to watch the sunset before returning back on the tube. Sunset is at 9.50pm and we aim to be back by 11.15pm.

Please check your bike before the ride paying particular attention to the brakes and tyres. Please wear a helmet, bring a lock, spare innertube, water and a snack (or money to purchase one). Don't forget lights are the short journey to the station from the hill will be after sunset.

We never leave anyone behind
