Starting point

E17 7HQ

Car park at the bottom of Coppermill Lane, Waltham Forest

Lea Valley (Women and women with their children)   Do you love the idea of a gentle bike ride in the countryside?  Do your children love riding their bikes as well? Well, come along to this Breeze ride when we will be cycling through the wonderful Lea Valley Park, up through Victoria Park (toilet stop) then down to Mile End Park on the Regents Canal where we will visit the Ragged School Museum http://www.raggedschoolmuseum.org.uk/nextgen/.  It's all off-road and there will be a cafe stop so it's perfect for chatting to the other riders and making new friends.   If any Hackney women would prefer to meet us in Victoria Park, meet next to the Pavillion cafe/toilets at about 1.45pm and, when you register on this website, please put "Hackney" after your family name so we know where to meet you. Check the weather before you leave http://news.bbc.co.uk/weather/forecast/8 and bring your bike, suitable clothes (your warmest gloves, if it’s cold!), a pannier or small backpack, water, something for lunch and some change for a cup of tea at the cafe. Bring bicycle lights! If there is any further information about this ride or you have any questions, you can contact us through Facebook at http://en-gb.facebook.com/#!/groups/BreezeEastLondon/ The meeting point is the car park at the bottom of Coppermill Lane, on your left just before you go under the railway bridge. You can see the meeting point on the link below where there is a P (for car park), just beside Coppermill Playing Field http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?x=535403&y=188477&z=0&sv=E17+7HQ&st=2&pc=E17+7HQ&mapp=map.srf&searchp=ids.srf If you don’t know where Coppermill Lane is, go to the bottom of the High Street, E17 (i.e. Walthamstow Market) and just continue straight on – you will find you are on Coppermill Lane. The houses will suddenly run out and you go past a few reservoirs. After that, you will go round a few bends before you get to the car park on your left. We will be waiting for you there in our red Breeze jackets.
