Family Friendly Ride to Cafe @ Lock 81 & Back (with Aquadrome Extension if wanted)

A gentle, totally road & traffic free route, which is a safe & exciting adventure for families - both children & grown ups! : ) We will ride along the Ebury Way, and cross onto the canal by the Cafe @ Lock 81 (Batchworth Lock - Rickmansworth) after 3 miles. Here you can enjoy tea & cake or breakfast - their sausage sandwich is award winning! There will also be an opportunity at this point for children and parent/guardians who want to do an extra two miles, to do an extra extension loop around the Aquadrome & back to the Cafe @ Lock 81. My hope is that by doing this we will cater for children of different ages, some of whom will want a break at Lock 81 after 3 miles, while for other children, accompanied by a parent/guardian, an extra 2 miles discovering the various ways in and around the Aquadrome will be an extra exciting challenge! : ) We will then all ride back along the canal tow path together, and re-join the Ebury to return to Watford Cycle Hub. All U16s, need to be accompanied by a parent / guardian.
