Meeting Points

Meet Cutty Sark Gardens: 18:30 PROMPT DEPARTURE.

If you want to meet us a bit later, be in the UPPER bit of Telegraph Hill Park by 18:50. We may be a bit later but won’t leave before then. If you’re hoping to meet us there, may be an idea to phone me.

The Ride

Our annual Bike Week ride to the sky, proving yet again that the best view of London is not from Primrose Hill.

Inevitably some steep climbs, but one particularly wonderful gliding descent, and we will wait for everyone. Not a fast ride at all. After all the exertions we’ll retire (well climb – it’s at the highest point) to a pub garden for drinks. Food available at pub but since this is at the end of the ride, we recommend that you bring snacks.

Total mileage just under 20 miles but this includes the trip up to the pub and back to Cutty Sark Gardens. The core of the ride including all of the main views is only about 10 miles. Leader can take folks back to Cutty Sark Gardens after the pub. Since we will never be far from rail stations, including several on the New East London Line, always possible to drop out early.
