About this Event
Woodberry Wetlands is a haven for wildlife in North London: 11 hectares of reed-fringed ponds and dykes There and back makes an excellent 11-mile, 3 hour ride. Jacqui is leading, starting from The Southwark Needle, London Bridge, south side. Route will pick up Cycleway 14 and cross river at Southwark bridge. Through the City and follow C11, then C1. Return via Clissold Park then C1 back to the starting point on London Bridge. Time for a comfort stop at the Coal House café in the Wetlands. To access the café we will have to walk our bikes along the boardwalk. Queue for coffee etc may be long, so perhaps bring snacks and drink. Mostly quiet streets but possibly a bit busy in the City on our return. Traffic free in the Wetlands where the path is narrow and shared with pedestrians and runners, so please give way when necessary. The surface there is compacted gravel. Numbers will be restricted to 10 (including Ride Leader) as a big group would be difficult (and unpopular) in the Nature reserve. So please only register when you are sure you will be able to attend.
Riders of all ages are welcome on Healthy Rides but under 18s must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Same for “adults at risk”. Always give way to pedestrians and to other cyclists so all path users feel safe. If you cannot make a ride, please cancel so that someone else can take the place.
