Fulham Palace Wisteria and back via Gunnersbury

This is a train-assisted route from Rayners Lane station on the Piccadilly Line - NB please be at Rayners Lane on the platform to Hammersmith by 0830 to take the 0837 train. From there we cross Hammersmith Bridge and ride down the Thames Path on the south side to Putney Bridge, which we cross to reach the Bishop's Park. We'll stop in the park to admire the wisteria, then continue along the North side of the Thames and take Cycleway 9 to Gunnersbury. If you prefer a short ride you can leave the group at Gunnersbury station to take the train home. If you'd like to cycle back to Rayners Lane we pass through Gunnersbury Park (where we'll have a refreshment stop) and then via Ealing and Perivale back to Rayners Lane. It's a varied ride including river, parks and protected cycleway plus a few busy streets.

We always go at the pace of the slowest and no one is ever left behind. For this reason the timing of the ride is an estimate.
