Do not turn up for rides if you have not been able to register. The number limit is defined in our Rusk Assessment for Healthy Rides.

So please only attend rides for which you have registered on Eventbrite.
Start 9.30 am at London Bridge (The Southwark Needle, south side). Estimated finish 1:00pm. Amanda leading a circular ride. Out along the south side of the river and over Westminster Bridge, then Horseguards and the Mall and through Hyde Park to Kensington Palace. Return via Battersea Park and the Power Station. Final stretch back along the river and C14. Coffee break, probably at Black Cab Cafe, 9 Elms Lane. As usual keeping to the quieter streets. Lots and lots to see. About 15 miles and flat, so we are giving ourselves plenty of time for a nice easy-paced ride.

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. These rides are part of a regular programme of Saturday rides, more information at https://southwarkcyclists.org.uk/healthy-rides/.
