Where to ride above London

Post by formula400 »

Right I’ve got the triple back on the road, I feel I need to get some miles under my belt, feel a bit rusty and need to get back in the grove.

Right to the point, where above London, I am north London can I got ride or what can I aim to see visit??? Just want some cool routes or somewhere to aim toward’s.

Cheers

Scotland is above London. Good roads there. ;)

It quite far enough, I wanted a proper day ride

Plus it’s wet up there, and I’ve seen train spotting

IIRC the only available 'public' path above london basically follows the river and has a limited altitude range (but don't know what that is - I know they don't like it if you get too low....)
