Starting point

SW11 6EJ

Meet on the grass on Wandsworth Common by the traffic lights at the top of Broomwood Rd. The shared pedestrian and bicycle path starts here.

This is a 20 mile ride which will take us through back streets in Wandsworth, Putney and Roehampton to Richmond Park. Once in the Park we will do a figure of eight loop at a reasonably brisk pace on the roads (c 12-15 mph) before returning via the same route to Wandsworth Common. We will have a 5 minute comfort and snack break in the Park, but our coffee stop will reward us at the end of the ride at a cafe on the Northcote Rd. The ride will all be on road surfaces. It's intended for women who want to get a bit of a work out and build up their cycling fitness - maybe with the aim of doing a sportive. The pace will be leisurely while we navigate our way through back roads and junctions over to Richmond Park, but once there we will try and keep up a brisk pace. But don't worry, no one will get left behind! Make sure you bring clothes suitable for the weather along with water, a snack and a spare inner tube in case of a puncture.
