Victoria Park is the oldest public park in London (opened 1845) and has a lake with fountain, a pagoda and a bandstand where bands still play every Sunday. And it has some lovely wide paths, perfect for shared riding and walking. We will set out from the Needle, London bridge, at 9.30 then cross Tower Bridge and follow mostly quiet streets and paths via Limehouse and Mile End to ‘Vicky’ Park. Then east to the nearby Olympic Park and probable coffee stop at the View Tube. Back via Three Mills, Westferry and Cycleway 3 to London Bridge by about 1pm. Ride Leader Amanda.

Riders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Same for “adults at risk”. Always give way to pedestrians and to other cyclists so all path users feel safe. If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place. This ride is part of a regular programme of Saturday rides, more information at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/.
