Meet at Cutty Sark Gardens to join cycle ride where we do a loop round north London, visiting Hackney, Islington and Camden and then finishing in the City of London. This ride reaches central London in time for you to watch some of the 2015 Lord Mayor's Show. This is our route: https://goo.gl/JQfuCd We first walk through the Greenwich Foot Tunnel to reach the north side of the Thames and then cycle up the Regent's Canal until we reach Victoria Park, where we stop off for a refreshment break at one of the cafes. We then cycle through Hackney, London Fields and De Beauvoir Town to reach Islington. We then take a look at the new Kings Cross development in Camden, before cycling down to the Guildhall Art Gallery, in the City of London, where the ride finishes. After the ride people can then visit the Guildhall Art Gallery, where you can go underground to see the Roman Amphitheatre (see https://goo.gl/GXQN0x there is no charge for entry). There are also walking tours at 1 Poultry Street which start at 3pm (see https://lordmayorsshow.london/day/). These finish near Blackfriars Bridge where people can watch the fireworks, at 17.15.
