Nonsuch Park to Beddington Park

A ride from Nonsuch Park to Beddington Park along the Wandle River. The route is designed for those who are new to cycling, returning to cycling or those who prefer slower off-road rides and chatty café stops.

The route will be mainly along cycle paths or quiet residential streets. Where necessary, we will dismount and make use of pedestrian crossings.

Our café stop will be the Pavillion Café in Beddington Park. The park itself was originally part of the deer park attached to Carew Manor, which was once a major country house.

Please bring a helmet, water, spare inner tube, a small lock and money for the café stop. If it has been a while since you last rode your bike, make sure that it is in good working order and that the tyres are pumped up. Get it checked at a bike shop if you are in any doubt. The days are starting to get cooler now so wear layers, consider if you will need a waterproof coat and remember to bring gloves.

We never leave anyone behind; the plan is to enjoy being out on our bikes as a group and have cake along the way.
