A slow easy going ride up the River Lee and around Hackney Marshes offers an opportunity to view the big blue fence around the big hole in the ground that is the site of the 2012 Olympic Park.No doubt the major constuction work is wating for the completion of Prescott Lock so the building materials can be transported to the site in an environmentally friendly way. So we'll take a look at the progress of Precott Lock which according to the timetable on the British Waterways web site should be completed in August 2008.
Suitable for all bikes except racy road bikes.
