Richmond Park Bike Ride

Easy 15 mile circular night ride for adults through traffic free Royal Park in west London. This ride through Richmond Park is possibly the coolest ride of Bike Week Events. Just imagine riding through unlit suburban country with no cars and just wild deer roaming about.

Ride anticlockwise around road & centre path, through Ham Common finishing at Ham House foot ferry slipway from about midnight for a picnic and drink. Ride back to Wandsworth through Richmond & Putney.
Bring: lights, food for a picnic, drink, (warm clothes if chilly or wet or not if it’s barmy) and a spare inner tube, cycle repair kit, musical instrument (optional) and a sense of humour.

Start Date - 25th June 2010 / Finish Date - 26th June 2010
