An innovation - The Fridays Daytime rides. This is the first of three we’re trying out this year. A social ride to meet, chat, welcome newcomers, and we hope for some new people to volunteer as Wing, All Upper or TEC.
Leaving from The Lodge, Hyde Park Corner at 09:45, we’ll ride through Barnes and Richmond to our morning coffee stop in Bushey Park @22km. Those who want an easy day can get a train back from Teddington (in the Freedom Pass/Oyster zone). Plenty of stations further along the way, so stay with us as long as you want.
Then on following The Thames through Staines and Datchet, passing Windsor Castle and out to a late lunch at The Lake House Cafe in Taplow. Please note that the number of riders at The Lake House is limited to about 20, so please register ASAP. Food orders will be taken in advance.
1km to Taplow station for Elizabeth Line trains back to London - free for 60+ & Freedom Pass holders.
62km, very flat, and we’ll be going gently.
